Excerpt from Mandarin Missionary in Cathay: The Story of Twelve Years' Strenuous Missionary Work During Stirring Times Mainly Spent in Yenanfu, a Prefectural City of Shensi, North China, With a Review of Its History From the Earliest Date The missionary on deputation work rarely has an opportunity of fully telling his story. Much of the time even of the Annual Missionary Meeting is taken up with things that are local. I seldom uttered a sentence at a missionary gathering that was not an example of the "struggle for existence," though I cannot hope to have equally exemplified "the survival of the fittest." There was always a wide margin of knowledge which could not, under the conditions, be imparted, but which it was desirable for the intelligent supporter of missions to acquire. The text required a context. I therefore send this volume forth on a mission of wider deputation, trusting it may reach many whom the spoken address could not, and convey a fuller message than the time limits of any public meeting would allow. I have not hesitated to include many things seemingly secular, since the sacred cause on which they bear sanctifies them all. And I have throughout been desirous of preserving the balance by giving problems as well as prospects their share of space. For the missionary book, as for the missionary meeting, there is one proper petition - "Let knowledge grow from more to more."

Originally published in the early 1970s, The Yenan Way in Revolutionary China has proved to be one of the most significant and enduring books published in the field. In this new critical edition of that seminal work, Mark Selden revisits the central themes therein and reconsiders them in light of major new theoretical and documentary understandings of the Chinese communist revolution.
