520 1 $a"The historical Norman Bethune - legendary in both his native Canada and China - was a visionary whose dedication touched millions, and as the narrator of this novel he springs to life even as he approaches its end. Rebelling in childhood against his father's religion, he finds a calling himself, saving lives on the battlefield, only after nearly losing his own in the trenches in France. In Republican Spain he fulfills his idealism, yet before long politics destroy a romance, compromise his achievement, and drive him to seek refuge and purpose in the vast expanse of China. Here, in the service of the man eventually known as Mao Zedong, Bethune contends with Nationalist and Japanese enemies and begins this account of failed loves, cherished beliefs, discoveries, and reversals for the only person who still makes a future seem possible: the daughter he has never seen."--BOOK JACKET.
