The VIGIL OF A NATION. BY LIN YUTANG, THE JOHN DAY CO., NEW YORK, 1945.
 
Chinese Wartime History 
 
For the second time Lin Yutang has gone deep into wartime China and has come out with much to tell. No foreign writer, and few Chinese, could have had such a chance to see past the smoke of war, through the clouds of gossip, and beneath the heaving surface of economic and political change. And Lin Yutang, as always, is unafraid of the truth.
