| | Abstract: | The Francis McCracken Fisher Papers are composed primarily of dispatches dating from March of 1935 to October of 1936 that Fisher sent while stationed in Peiping (now Beijing) China. Also included are journals, newspapers, magazines, items written by communists in Yenan (including some OWI journals issued at the end of World War II), Fisher's 1933 thesis on press censorship in China, and materials from Japan, China, and America. Other items include a bond, money, and certificates issued in China, all of which are written in Chinese. Among the topics discussed most frequently are Chinese political leaders, drug addiction and smuggling, and the communist movement in Yenan. | |
