The Story Of Chung Mei

Philadelphia: Judson, 1938. Quite rare, especially in the signed form, a VG copy of the history of Berkeley's Chung Mei School. Founded in 1923 by Charles Shepherd (a Cantonese-speaking Baptist minister from England), the school was built to care for orphaned and abandoned Chinese boys who were not allowed into "white" facilities. Chung Mei was closed in 1954, and Shepherd died in 1964. Pages clean, binding sound, cover clean and all but unworn. 264pp., illus. with B&W photos. Signed and inscribed by Shepher on the dedication page.. Signed by Author. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. Read More
