As a result, it is hard to gage the value of the collection. Some travel stories seem to have some journalistic value, while other are mainly touristic. There are four essays for China: Canton (1978), Yunnan (1987), Hong Kong to Shanghai (1992), and the Yangtse River (1995). Essays about China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and Tibet are grouped separately under headers as if they are separate countries.
Garry Marchant is a Canadian freelance writer who has made contributions to various guidebooks and anthologies, notably Away From Home. Canadian Writers in Exotic Places and Our American Cousins. The United States through Canadian Eyes. ( )
