Beschreibung
William Lindesay arrived in red-tape China in 1986 to try to do the impossible - a journey on foot along the entire length of the Great Wall. Wild Wall-The Foundation Years tells the story of his daring west-to-east endeavour, staggered and rerouted by multiple arrests and interrupted by a deportation from which he found a way back. He recounts the incredible hospitality he met along the way, and a whirlwind romance with the woman he was to marry. The book also takes us with William on the trail of Chairman Mao's Long March, on foot, and recounts other baffling experiences in a China then still physically and psychologically separated from the outside world, just as the Great Wall intended. Wild Wall-The Foundation Years, is an extraordinary narrative of ancient, revolutionary and reforming China.
