Description
Nancy Thomson Waller, daughter of educational missionaries, was born in Nanking, China in 1918 -- a time of great turmoil. From the South to the North, warlords were being overthrown by Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist Army. Amid their daily routines, family expeditions, and terrifying moments such as the Looting of 1927, the Thomson family witnessed Nanking's transformation from a sleepy, medieval city to a modern, bustling capital. My Nanking Home is a very personal memoir recounting a happy childhood in a faraway land. It is a journey back to another time, another world
