The Chinese Ginger Jars is a historical non-fiction book that tells the story of an American missionary family living in China during the Japanese occupation. Written by Myra Scovel, the book takes readers on a journey through the lives of the family members and their experiences during a tumultuous time in Chinese history. The story is centered around the family's collection of Chinese ginger jars, which serve as a symbol of their resilience and courage in the face of adversity. Through personal accounts and historical research, Scovel paints a vivid picture of life in China during the war and the struggles faced by both the Chinese people and the American missionaries. The book is a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit and the enduring power of hope in the face of great adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
