TOPPING AUDREY RONNING
China Mission: A Personal History From The Last Imperial Dynasty To The People's Republic
Louisiana State University Press Baton Rouge and London: 2013. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Winner of the PROSE Award for Media & Cultural Studies. When the Reverend Halvor Ronning his sister Thea and fellow missionary Hannah Rorem set out in 1891 to found a Lutheran mission and school in the interior of China they could not have foreseen the ways in which that decision would ripple across generations of the Ronning family. Halvor and Hannah would marry and their son Chester born in Hubei Province in 1894 would spend over half his life in China as a student teacher and a Canadian diplomat. Chester's daughter Audrey studied at Nanking University during the Chinese Civil War and later spent decades reporting on the People's Republic of China for the New York Times Foreign Affairs and many other publications. "During the last century" Audrey Topping notes "a member of our family was there for almost every event of importance." China Mission presents a personal history of her family's ties to their adopted home and the momentous events that radically changed one of the most powerful countries in the world. The Ronnings found Imperial China at the end of the nineteenth century to be a nation on the cusp of change and they were swept up as both observers and participants in these dramatic events. During their years as missionaries the Ronnings witnessed the Boxer Uprising in 1898 the subsequent Palace Coup and the Siege of Peking the death of the last emperor and the collapse of China's dynasty system. They also endured personal challenges�famine births deaths and the almost constant threat of attack�that were countered with songs celebrations friendship and a deep appreciation for the culture of which they had become a part. Later Chester Ronning would return to China as would his daughter Audrey bringing their family's story to the end of the twentieth century. This extraordinary account compiled from the diaries letters and photographs of three generations offers modern readers a rare and remarkable look at a world long gone. Audrey Ronning Topping is a freelance photojournalist author and writer of documentary films specializing in Asian affairs. Her photos have been exhibited in numerous galleries and universities and her articles and photos have appeared in major publications in the United States and abroad including the National Geographic LIFE Newsweek Time Reader's Digest and Harper's Bazaar. She is the author and photographer of five books including The Splendors of Tibet and Dawn Wakes in the East. She has written scripts and been a commentator and assistant producer on six television documentaries including Great Wall Across the Yangtze The Forbidden City The Tomb of the Terra-cotta Warriors and Chester Ronning's China Mission. Audrey is married to Seymour Topping former foreign correspondent and managing editor of the New York Times. They have five daughters born in Saigon London Berlin and Scarsdale New York.

Omaha 1898. Broadside advertisement approximately 10 1/2 x 7 3/4 inches. Previously folded some separations along old fold lines. Tanned corners slightly chipped. Good. A curious survival from the 1898 Trans-Mississippi Exposition held in Omaha promoting the sale of Mongolian jade carvings at a booth in the International Hall of the fair. The advertisement emphasizes the obscurity of the region of origin "the Chinese population could not understand their Mongolian brothers except through writing" and the convoluted journey of the artwork to America "carried in wicker baskets suspended on a pole resting on the shoulders of two men". "Were it not for the fact that the workers receive but a small daily wage hundreds of dollars would be represented in many of the pieces; as it is it is possible to dispose of them at moderate prices. An opportunity is thus offered to lovers of the curious and the beautiful to secure something entirely new in the art world something too of great artistic merit." unknown
