Book excerpt: This work is a practical research guide to a fascinating group of historical character so those foreigners who visited or lived in Communist-controlled areas of China before 1949. Author Margaret Stanley went to Yenan as a nurse in 1947 at the most dangerous time, escaping by way of the hills when the tiny town was occupied by anti-communists later in the civil war. In this volume, she compiles a chronological list of the members of the Yenan Hui, the small circle of individuals who visited areas under Chinese Communist jurisdiction before 1949. Co-published with the Center for East Asian Studies.
