    “Book Descriptions: An epic novel of a wide-eyed missionary and a rebellious woman thrust into China's Communist revolution.

    In 1931, young English-born missionary Jakob Kellner brings all the crusading passion of his untried Christian faith to a China racked by famine and bloody civil war. He burns to save the world's largest nation from Communism.

    But when he is swept along on the cold, unforgiving Long March, Jakob becomes entangled with Mei-ling, a beautiful and fervent revolutionary. Soon, powerful new emotions challenge and reshape his faith - and entrap him forever in the vast country's tortured destiny.

    Once held hostage by Red Guards in Peking for more than two years, author Anthony Grey traces the path of China's Communist party from its covert inception through purge and revolution. He crafts a portrait of China as a land of great beauty and harshness - of triumph and tragedy - in a sweeping narrative, rich in historical and cultural revelations.
