The personal anecdotes in Taylor's memoir, Present at a Revolution, convey the flavor of life in 1930s China with details not described in his academic writings. Taylor tells of smuggling medicines to the Chinese, with his life in danger if he was caught and hiding the manuscript of his book in his baby son's bassinet to get past a Japanese checkpoint. Taylor's memoir is an engaging account for everyone interested in 1930s North China.

"Becoming American, Remaining Jewish traces the development of Wilmington, Delaware's first Jewish community in order to understand what the Jews created and why, what values were reflected in the institutions they established and the causes they advocated, and what changed over the years. Readers concerned about questions of identity and community today will find much stimulating material in this story." "The appendix, which contains the names of more than two thousand adult Jews lived in Wilmington between 1879 and 1920, is the most comprehensive list of early Jewish Wilmingtonians ever published. With its information on country of birth and first occupation, the list is a valuable resource for historians and genealogists."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
