Over 15 years, Father David Strong SJ has quarried the archives of the Jesuits in Europe, Asia and the North America to provide a story as intimate as it is comprehensive. A mammoth undertaking to report and assess the works, successes and failures of over a thousand foreigner and hundreds of Chinese Jesuits. Through the narrative, we feel what daily life in cities and villages is like, we have a window on the grand shaping events that tumultuous century and more of Chinese history and we marvel at the sacri ces and idealism of generations caught by the dream and reality of evolving China.
