This is the biography of my mother, a true Chinese and Korean patriot and hero. Follow her as she lives through the horrors of World War II, China, the Chinese Civil War and the Korean War. She is shot at, beaten, abused, and put before a firing squad. It will make you laugh and cry. Be with her as she meets Gandhi of India, Chiang Kai-shek of China, Chairman Kim Ku of Korea and countless dignitaries. You will see why she is called the Nanjing Princess.
I am Leonard P. Pomfret, the Author of The Nanjing Princess and the son of the main character. I am an American who served 20 years in the US Air Force as a Security Policeman. I also worked for the State of California in Law Enforcement. I enjoy writing and I always feel at ease when I write. This book took me 15 years to complete, because I wanted to make sure that it was done right. This story made me appreciate my mother even more. It was hard to write this story because it is so sad. I found that this is a story that needed to be told.
