Description

Dan Ling, a patriotic young engineer eager to help build a new China, falls afoul of the authorities and spends 17 years as a political prisoner. Rehabilitated after Deng Xiaoping came to power, Dan returns to work with unflagging determination to help provide a good life for himself and his people after enduring prison, work camps and work farms, and the primitive lif e of the social outcast breaking new ground on the frozen northern frontier. Youli Sun is Director of American University's Beijing Program. He holds a PhD from the University of Chicago and did post-doctoral studies at Washington University; he is a specialist in American diplomatic history, modern Chinese history, and US-East Asian relations.
