Following are excerpts from the praise CHINA: Portrait of a People continues to receive from readers and media reviewers: "Unless you want to undertake your own two-year trek through some of the mainland's most difficult terrain to take your own shots, this is a study well worth having on your bookshelf." - South China Morning Post"CHINA: Portrait of a People is not just an idyllic souvenir for Sinophiles, but a timeless piece of literature that...can be passed down through the dynasties as one of the most honest and educational illustrated books on contemporary China ever published." - New Asia Books (read the entire China Portrait review here) "The pictures are evocative, although not works of art. Instead, the systematicclassification of images is almost anthropological." - China Review (read the entire China Portrait review here)"The collection of 800 photos paints a beautiful, comprehensive portrait of China and its people in a way that words never could." - the Beijinger (read the entire China Portrait review here) "China: Portrait of a People is a snapshot of an entire country in a time of great change; a truthful and touching portrayal of the Chinese people in all their variety, charm and earthiness. - 1 Comment
