Searching For A Magpie: My Adventures in China and Tibet

by Patricia Probert Gott

Take a journey through China with the author, from Beijing in the east to central Xian, Chengdu, and Chongqing, and from Lhasa, Tibet in the west, down the Yangtze River to the port city of Shanghai. China still has its own set of problems. Yet the bulk of the Chinese people have more money and more freedom than ever before. They are polite to Americans and try to emulate our culture and characteristics while striving to surpass us in every way. They are happy, peaceful, and markedly proud of their country and leaders. Theirs is a country of the biggest central square in the world, the largest and best imperial palace complex, the world’s largest dam, and the world’s largest and longest manmade structure--the Great Wall.Enjoy the colorful photos and adventure.
