Smedley, Agnes, — China Correspondent.

NY, Pandora, (1986). VG PB. Smedley, feminist, socialist & author, traveled alone to China in 1928, an epic journey through war torn country in the 30s. No detached reporter, Smedley sent her dispatches to Britain's Manchester Guardian newspaper, while traveling with the Red Army as a medic. She came to China directly from organizing birth control clinics in Germany & her feminism made her particularly aware of women struggling to break free from old China which bound their feet & killed their daughters.
