5.0 out of 5 stars
Easy to read from a great author,
By James Kim (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sacred Village: Social Change and Religious LIfe in Rural North China (Hardcover)
I should start by admitting that I am biased towards the author -- he was my professor at UCLA and he taught a great class. We actually got to read parts of this book before it was published. Now that I read the whole thing, I can see how much I learned from Professor DuBois. The book is full of detail from the time he lived in China, and is something that ordinary people can understand and enjoy. Just like he was in class, DuBois is a natural storyteller, and this book not only educates, it also entertains. After reading this, I really felt like I could understand the beliefs and lives of the people in the book. This is a slightly expensive book (I read it in a library!), but worth it!
