Unforgettable describes this tale, Journey to China, that sweeps the reader not only into adventures when a family of six from a small desert, farming community in southwestern United States begin the trip to China that started as routine with a dual purpose of escorting their niece to her parents who are attending Peking University and to schedule a visit with the girls’ pen pal but also find themselves caught up in intrigue as they become a target from a spy from the Central Communist Government. Share their adventures as they experience China’s century old customs battling with modern day philosophies as an economic and militaristic country among the cultural treasures and great wonders of the world along with high speed transportati on, high rises and new emphasis on education. As they learn to bridge the language barrier, there is new respect for the Chinese people who have been inventors, artists, music, and more for over three thousand years. In the countryside, the families find a quiet and calm environment. While visiting the pen pal family, they assist in a disaster that makes them heroic in the whole country. On the return trip home, they encounter an earthquake within the Ring of Fire followed by a tidal wave that may jeopardize their lives along with the other 300 passengers in a crippled airplane. Will they be able to utilize their ingenuity and create a miracle to save themselves?

Thirty leading China experts—ranging from Perry Link, Andrew Nathan and Jonathan Mirsky to W. J. F. Jenner, Lois Wheeler Snow and Morton Abramowitz—recount their first visits to China, recalling their initial observations and impressions. Most first traveled to China when it was still closed to the world, or was just beginning to open. Their subsequent opinions, writings and policies have shaped the Western relationship with China for more than a generation. This is essential reading for those who want to understand the evolution of Western attitudes toward modern China. At the same time, this collection provides a vivid, personal window onto a fascinating period in Chinese history. “To collect the stories of first encounters with China was a brilliant idea. Not only do we get the benefit of many fascinating insights (and hindsights) from a range of foreigners and overseas Chinese, but these deftly edited views from the outside make up one great story: the history of Communist China. More than a history of one damned thing happening after another, however, this is a history of perceptions, lies, myths and revelations, as much about China as her rulers wish it to be seen, as about those who chose to see China, more and sometimes less clearly, over the last half century.” —Ian Buruma, author of Bad Elements “The opening of China to the world, and then of the world to China, is one of modern history’s most consequential stories. That story is told in a fresh, innovative fashion in this insightful collection of personal experiences related by a distinguished collection of historians, diplomats, journalists, political writers and others who ventured behind the Bamboo Curtain early on. Leading the way are disillusioned leftists stunned by the horrors of the Cultural Revolution and Mao’s Great Leap Forward that they discover. They gradually give way to knowing observers of a tumultuous society determined to become once again a world power. Their accounts form an impressionistic vision of epochal change taking place on the gallop.” —Jim Hoagland, contributing editor, The Washington Post “This is a wistful and absorbing volume, and a fitting remembrance for all of us who once thought that China was going to be easy to study.” —Jonathan Spence, author of The Search for Modern China

So, the book is essentially my day-to-day activities of traveling from Tokyo, Japan to Shanghai China, and then the course of 4 months through China, including the Great Wall of China, the terracotta warriors at Xi'an, the granite cliffs along the Li River from Guilin to Yangshou, and finally leaving China via the modern city of Shenzhen to Hong Kong.
