The Autobiography of Henry Pu Yi, Last Emperor of China

The Last Manchu

Really cool book! Pu Yi did a really excellent job detailing his mental state in each aspect of his life. His writing as (child) emperor compared to his time in reform school under Mao changed so drastically, I was very impressed. For a man that spent plenty of sentences calling himself an idiot, I thoroughly enjoyed his autobiography.
