50 Years of People's Mongolia - 1971- DJ - Anniv. of 1921 Revolution

Description: Very rare book printed in Mongolia in 1971, commemorating fifty years of independence from Chinese rule. An ode to Lenin and the changes that occurred in Mongolia after the revolution of 1921. There are entries by Lenin , national hero D. Suke Batore and Mongolian leader Yumzhagin Tsedenbal who wrote: "The independent development of the Mongolian People's Republic, the revolutionary gains of the Mongolian people, their successes in building the new socialist society are inseparably linked withthe name of the graet Lenin and his immortal teaching." Fascinating color and B&W photos demonstrate the progress in Mongolia ( TV sets! Bouffant hairdos!) , interspersed with classic shots of a hunter with his golden eagle, camel riders in the Gobi desert, and an ambulance arriving at a yurt. Dozens of articles by scholars and politicians extolling the improvements to the quality of life post-revolution. This large fifty year-old book is truly one of a kind - beautifully bound and produced in Ulan Bator ( or Ulaanbaatar more recently) Mongolia. We are not able to find another copy on the internet.
