A newly published book tells the history of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and its fight for peace and democracy over the past 90-plus years (1921-2012).

Compiled by the Party History Research Center, the book details the CPC's battles, traditions and experience.

The book, which has become a bestseller in many localities since it debuted in late June, tells how the Party led the Chinese people to independence and liberation, how it led China during opening up and reform and how it developed socialism with Chinese characteristics.

Compilation took six years of combined efforts by various experts and scholars of the Party's history. It is regarded as the most complete Party history.
