SCHOLARLY / BIBLIOGRAPHICAL

This page is very much "in development" while I marshal a readable guide to the labyrinth of  sources, archives and books covering China and its surrounds from the late 19th century - something accessible to the relentless.

Meantime, two items to keep it warm:

1) BOOKS

 "My Quest to Fly"is a new book by ex-pilot Sebie Biggs Smith who "flew for China" in its darkest hours of defensive war against Japan. Highly recommended. For more details, see commentary HERE.

2) Bookshops
