Come join us to hear author Lynne Joiner discuss her new book. Honorable Survivor weaves John S. Service’s extraordinary story into the fabric of a watershed moment in our history when World War II was ending, the Cold War was dawning, and the McCarthy era was beginning. A true tale of intrigue, adventure, persecution, and redemption—and of the love of a loyal American wife and a Chinese lover—this biography of Jack Service tells the story of an idealistic U.S. Foreign Service officer in wartime China who, early on, predicted Mao Zedong’s successful revolution.
