Could China really pull off the biggest amphibious invasion in history?
Will crossing the Tawian straits prove catastrophic?

The answer lies buried in the sands of history’s most catastrophic beach landings—and it spells disaster for Beijing.

In Red Tide, military strategist and historian Dr. Eric Engle exposes the brutal realities facing China’s ambitions across the Taiwan Straits. Drawing on the newest declassified intelligence, war games, and the hard lessons of Gallipoli, Dieppe, Tarawa, and the Falklands, this gripping war-plan reveals why Taiwan’s geography, modern missile defenses, make the high-seas graveyard and a Chinese victory over Taiwan nearly impossible.

Inside, you’ll discover:

• The Taiwan Trap: How the island’s rugged coasts, urban strongholds, and missile networks mirror the nightmares of WWII’s bloodiest landings.
• Beijing’s Blind Spots: Why China’s military planners are repeating the same fatal errors that doomed Galtieri’s Falklands gamble.
• The Drone & Missile Gauntlet: How Taiwan’s “porcupine” strategy—backed by U.S. tech—could turn the Strait into a killing zone before a single Chinese soldier sets foot on shore.
• Xi Jinping’s High-Stakes Gamble: The strategic miscalculations and political pressures that could drag China into a war it cannot win.

Perfect for readers of The Kill Chain, 2034, and Red Storm Rising. Military historians, strategists, and anyone tracking the U.S.-China showdown will find Red Tide an indispensable guide to the coming crisis.
