Publisher's Note
In this tribute to his own childhood in Chinatown, William Low melds a spare, evocative text with richly descriptive art, a combination that lends a feeling of immediacy to every page. Herbal shops, outdoor markets, and a tai chi chuan class in the park are among the many sights a young boy sees when taking a walk with his grandmother. Full color.

Industry Reviews
"Here is a fine read which will makes one wring one's hands over the lost opportunity."
Spectator - Richard Lamb (10/19/1996)

"Extraordinary. A gripping thriller, with twists and coincidences that even John le Carre might not risk."
Daily Telegraph (London) - John Keegan

"Fascinating...a splendid book: complete, thorough and thoughtful, eloquently written, and well translated."
Sunday Telegraph (London) - Hugh T. Roper

"...'Plotting Hitler's Death' can be recommended as a fluent, readable, and well-informed introduction to a subject which still has the capacity to arouse passion and debate more than half a century after the event."
Times Literary Supplement - Richard J. Evans (11/22/1996)

"What distinguishes Fest's account is his calm and assured command of the large cast of conspirators and the complex unfolding of events..."
New York Review of Books - Thomas Powers (01/09/1997)
