Editor's Note:
Gold medal winner in Autobiography, 2020 Independent Press AwardsFinalist in Narrative Nonfiction, 2019 Independent Publishers of New England Book Awards"Her view of a crucial period of transition is truly a marvel to behold."Publishers WeeklyThe daughter of a missionary doctor, Claire Malcolm Lintilhac (1899-1984) was born in China, became a nurse there, and lived and worked through China's whole momentous first half of the 20th century. Opening a unique window into the making of the world's newest yet oldest superpower, CHINA IN ANOTHER TIME — with over 160 photos and drawings — is Claire's own story, compiled by Doug Wilhelm from the writings and recorded storytelling she left behind.Born in China's interior as the daughter of a Canadian medical missionary, Claire became a freelance traveling nurse in the country. She witnessed firsthand the years of civil war that followed China's short-lived Nationalist Revolution of 1911. In the 1930s — as Claire cared for patients both Western and Chinese, fell in love and started a family — she survived Japan's two horrific attacks on Shanghai, and her British husband Lin was interned by the Japanese in a Shanghai camp during World War II.In 1949, Claire watched as China's greatest city fell to the Communist Party, and in 1950 she, Lin and their son Philip slipped quietly out of the country they loved.CHINA IN ANOTHER TIME is Claire's vividly personal account of China's struggle to become its own modern nation, from the last imperial dynasty to the advent of Communist rule. The book includes short, clear historical sidebar articles by Doug Wilhelm, and an introduction by eminent China scholar Nicholas Clifford, late professor emeritus at Middlebury College.
