She observed the Communist Party of China's century-long journey from its founding to its continuous growth and strengthening, dedicating itself to pursuing happiness for the Chinese people and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation. Over three years, author Tan Kai conducted extensive interviews and field research to produce this work. Through over three hundred thousand words and a collection of precious historical photographs, the book recounts Isabel Crook's upbringing on the Huaxi Campus in Chengdu, her anthropological research in Sichuan and Chongqing, her and her husband David Crook's participation in the anti-fascist war in Britain and their joining of the Communist Party of Great Britain, their subsequent investigations in China's liberated areas, and, after the founding of New China, their dedication to English language teaching and the promotion of international friendship and exchanges.</p><p></p><p>As an anthropologist, international communist, educator, and pioneer of English language teaching in New China, Isabel Crook shared the same breath and fate with the Chinese people, devoting herself ardently to the great cause of building a new China. She made outstanding contributions to China's educational endeavors and international friendship and exchanges. Throughout her life, she ""presented the world with a genuine and vibrant China, spreading a message of peace and beauty from China.""</p><p></p><p>&#20234;&#33678;&#30333;-&#26607;&#40065;&#20811;1915&#24180;&#29983;&#20110;&#20013;&#22269;&#25104;&#37117;&#65292;&#22905;&#20146;&#21382;&#20102;&#20013;&#22269;&#30334;&#20313;&#24180;&#30340;&#21382;&#21490;&#24040;&#21464;&#65292;&#35265;&#35777;&#20102;&#20013;&#22269;&#20849;&#20135;&#20826;&#30334;&#24180;&#26469;&#20174;&#21019;&#24314;&#21040;&#19981;&#26029;&#21457;&#23637;&</p>
