China fought for its very existence during World War II. Its struggle against Japan is often overshadowed in Western history books and films by the dramatic air-sea battles in the Pacific and island hopping campaigns fought by U.S. Marines. Allen Larsen's photo book offers a rare and treasured glimpse into the Chinese theater of operations from the perspective of American servicemen helping to defend China. China in the Eyes of Flying Tigers 1944-1945 highlights a once strong bond between two future competing superpowers. Thanks to the keen photographic eye of a young Flying Tiger, Larsen's images (of which the quality, history and moments captured are awe-inspiring) capture daily life in China at a time when Japanese aerial attacks were still common. It is an amazing pictorial documentation of the U.S. involvement in China during World War II and a must have for modern Chinese piecing together their history during the winding years of the war....

Very clear English translation of an important Confucian philosopher. Xun Zi is very rational and compelling in his essays....

Very practical book+dvd for studing healt qigong!

The book in not only full of beautiful pictures, it is a historical record of events, people and places that have disappeared long ago. As the son of a US Army solder stationed in Kunming at the same time, I am fascinated by being able to see, through these pictures, the same things my father saw at that time. I was also impressed how gently and caringly the author and photographer interacted with the Chinese people inspite of the difference in their cultures. The book is well worth the money....

excellent goods and service, would recommend site to all my friends.

Order arrived promptly and in great condition. Thank-you!

It's a wonderful look into the Chinese culture through individual stories and dialogue. It's a lesson in how dialogue can create bridges of understanding and bring people closer together. It is written as a dialogue between the author and Bejingers, but it is also one between Chinese and Western thought on humanity's relationship with nature. I enjoyed it very much....

Excellent ... I had purchased the opening & closing ceermeonies DVDs in 2008, but they were not in anamophic widescreen enhanced for 16:9 TV. This DVD collection is in anamophic widescreen .... bravo !!...
