Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mey Wing: A Romance of Cathay
The house of Chao Ju's father was built of adobe, and thatched with straw. The ?oor was of mud, dried and hardened by tramping of many feet, but it was swept carefully, and looked clean. The baby's cradle was an old tub, and an old cotton comfort was his bed; the old sweet light was in his eye, and his smile, and the old charm which has ever lingered about babies, held those around his tub just as it holds those who gather around costly cradles and silken curtains, and to him also.
