While the principle narrator is Christensen's father, a young missionary doctor who, in a hair-raising journey, smuggled his family behind Japanese battlelines the year before Pearl Harbor, Christensen also tells the story of the many other missionaries who also sought to relieve the suffering of innocents caught in the crossfire of war and revolution - brave women who marched orphans through enemy lines, missionaries turned OSS intelligence officers, a Canadian Anglican cleric, a Swiss trainer of seeing-eye dogs, and a diplomat who travelled the province by bicycle.

This book documents how China's rural people remember the great famine of Maoist rule, which proved to be the worst famine in modern world history. Ralph A. Thaxton, Jr., sheds new light on how China's socialist rulers drove rural dwellers to hunger and starvation, on how powerless villagers formed resistance to the corruption and coercion of collectivization, and on how their hidden and contentious acts, both individual and concerted, allowed them to survive and escape the predatory grip of leaders and networks in the thrall of Mao's authoritarian plan for a full-throttle realization of communism - a plan that engendered an unprecedented disaster for rural families. Based on his study of a rural village's memories of the famine, Thaxton argues that these memories persisted long after the events of the famine and shaped rural resistance to the socialist state, both before and after the post-Mao era of reform.

En 534, à la suite d'une guerre civile, l’empire des Wei du Nord se disloque. La belle cité de Luoyang qui était leur capitale depuis 494 est alors abandonnée. Les religieux bouddhistes suivent la cour et laissent déserts les innombrables temples et monastères que la piété des fidèles avait multipliés dans la ville. Une dizaine d’années plus tard, Yang Xuanzhi (fl. 550), un petit fonctionnaire, est obligé, par les devoirs de sa charge, de se rendre à Luoyang ; il s’afflige alors de trouver en ruine les bâtiments qui faisaient naguère son admiration, et, dans la crainte que la postérité ne perdît tout souvenir de ce qu’avait été cette splendeur, il compose à son retour son Mémoire sur les monastères bouddhiques de Luoyang.L’ouvrage recense les monastères de la ville et, ce faisant, expose de nombreuses anecdotes s’y rapportant, en ne se limitant pas à l’histoire religieuse. L’auteur donne en effet quantité d’informations sur la vie politique et culturelle de Luoyang du temps de sa grandeur et de sa chute. Par ailleurs, l’un des chapitres du livre est constitué d’un long excursus racontant le voyage en Asie centrale et en Inde du Nord d’un moine, source particulièrement précieuse pour les historiens.
