Part of my research into the adventures of Jack Reynolds in China with the Friends Ambulance Unit distributing medical supplies in the nineteen forties has been collecting photos. I had nothing to start with but by tracing families of former FAU members I have managed to build up a fine collection to illustrate my book. What follows is an arbitrary selection, chosen mainly because they are of low definition that should post easily.
My last five years have been dedicated to producing a book called, "Jack Jones - A TRUE FRIEND TO CHINA" about the work of the Friends Ambulance Unit 'China Convoy'. Jack wrote about their work during the nineteen forties distributing medical supplies and doing medical relief work until the communist regime called a halt in 1951. Jack, author of the novel, "A Woman of Bangkok", was a fine writer and evokes the era superbly in his contemporary articles that I have edited for this new book. It's been produced by Earnshaw Books in Shanghai as a large format book of 400 pages and 500 photos. Ask me how to buy it on arhicks56@hotmail.com.
