Bound Feet & Western Dress (Paperback)

Description:

The author, born in China in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion, tells the story of her tumultuous life: her arranged marriage to a poet who treated her cruelly and ultimately abandoned her; her flight to Germany where she educated herself and became a teacher; and her career as the first woman vice-president of a Shanghai bank. This memoir was written for her Chinese American grandniece, a Harvard student who sought to know the background of her own conflicting identities.
