With a Foreword by Waseda University's Tsuchiya Reiko and a General Introduction by Series Editor Peter O'Connor, each Series contextualises dispatches to Western newspapers and highlights on-the-spot reports and memoirs from Anglophone Western and Asian journalists based in East and South-East Asia and writing for locally-published English-language newspapers. Series 2: Pioneering Women Journalists, 1919-1949 comprises 16 full-length volumes (c.4100 pages), opening with Ellen La Motte's Peking Dust (1919) and concluding with Anna Louise Strong's The Chinese Conquer China (1949). |
