Once There Was a Family...

A blend of happiness, tragedy, and pathos. Follow the footsteps of a Chinese diplomat and his Mexican family through their trials and tribulations, stretching from the early 1930s through the 1950s. From the sleepy town of Chiapas in Southern Mexico to the Far East, the reader travels through countries, crosses the Pacific Ocean, and lands on the shores at the turbulent beginnings of the Communist Revolution in China. Each page is painted on the broad canvas of this touching, poignant memoir.
