Edward Ward, who travelled out to China to work for Reuters in 1933. He went out by the quickest route in those days - the Trans-Siberian Railway. He started in Reuters' head office in Shanghai, but it was when he ran the branch office in Tientsin in a somewhat unorthodox way that the good life really began. Ward knew some remarkable characters - not least his Chinese servants - and has many stories to tell of days in the old China.
