Living in and reading about China

Feet on soil chapters.    Nose in books chapters.

A dual duality: webbook - ebook, plus two types of chapter, alternating.

The complete ebook is available -- Click here -- for less than

the price of a plate of General Tso's Chicken

while this website, which contains portions of the ebook, grows periodically (slowly) through sequential postings.

A paperback is also available.
