The Soong Dynasty by Sterling Seagrave

Descendants of a Chinese runaway who grew to in America under the protection of the Methodist church and who returned to his homeland to make a fortune selling Western Bibles, the Soong family became the principal rulers of China during the first half of the 20th century and won the support of the American government and press for many decades.

Sterling Seagrave grew raised on the Myanmar-China border in Asia. Seagrave worked as an investigative writer in Asia for many years, and his work appeared in the Washington Post, Time, Life, and a variety of other publications. He is the author of The Soong Dynasty, a New York Times best-seller and a Book of the Month Club favorite. Yellow Rain: A Journey Through the Horror of Chemical Warfare and Red Sky in the Morning, which he co-wrote with his wife, Peggy, a longstanding collaborator, are two of his other novels. They are based in France.
