Harvest of Hunger is the first book in a gripping trilogy recounting the saga of four generations of an American family serving as missionaries and cultural ambassadors in China in the 19th and 20th centuries. From the bustling streets of Beijing to the halls of academia, this historical fiction transports readers to the early twentieth century, a land in turmoil as it grapples with its imperial past and uncertain future. Ross Sutherland, a scientist, a physician, and father of a young family returns to China to join his aging missionary father in his own way by accepting teaching positions at new universities in Beijing. As he struggles to balance his multiple family responsibilities, he finds himself embroiled in a dangerous hostage situation during the North China Famine of 1920. Though a certain amount of literary license has been used in developing the narratives, they do track closely actual historical events and experiences of actual people. With vividly detailed scenes and well-crafted prose, Harvest of Hunger is a riveting tale of service, duty, and resilience that will keep readers turning pages long into the night. Don't miss out on the first volume of this exciting trilogy.
