An old but still-useful biography is Lyon Sharman, Sun Yat-sen: His Life and Its Meaning (1934, reprinted 1973). More recent works include C. Martin Wilbur, Sun Yat-sen, Frustrated Patriot (1977), a scholarly treatment; Harold Z. Schiffrin, Sun Yat-sen, Reluctant Revolutionary (1980); and Gottfried-Karl Kinderman (ed.), Sun Yat-sen: Founder and Symbol of China’s Revolutionary Nation-Building (1982), a collection of symposium papers. Paul Linebarger, Sun Yat Sen and the Chinese Republic (1925, reprinted 1969), is a sympathetic, personal account. See also Howard L. Boorman (ed.), Biographical Dictionary of Republican China, vol. 3, pp. 170–189 (1970).
