Ten years in the making, Searching for Dr. Victoria Chung: A Woman in Between finally brings together the complex and intriguing story of Dr. Victoria Chung, the first Asian Canadian, man or woman, to earn a medical degree in Canada. She went to China as a medical missionary in 1923. An eye-witness to China’s independence struggle, she provided urgent medical care during the Second World War, stayed on after the 1949 revolution, and became a legend in her own right until the Cultural Revolution. This book shines the light on a story long forgotten in both China and Canada.

Authors: Dr. John Price with Dr. Ningping Yu
