DJ, what a treasure trove of old photos of China. If only I could turn back the clock to experience life in early twentieth century China. Life was hard for every one. But China was China, it won the hearts of many foreigners and missionaries. They have deep affinity to the land and its people. I like reading books by writers who had lived through that era, Some of my favorites are Pearl Buck, Gladys Aylward, and Brian Powers. I appreciate what you have found greatly. DL.
