Literature on Wuyi
Raymond Seid on his most recent trip to his ancestral village in Xinhui purchased three very interesting books on Wuyi. These books take the readers to different parts of Wuyi and give a glimpse of the area’s past as the pieces were written by different authors from different eras.
Raymond is willing to share these books with our visitors who in turn will translate portion into English and share the translation with the online community. Please contact me for further information.
These books should be readily available in major bookstores throughout. Please contact us for further information.

Hey this was probably one of the most intelligent posts I’ve had the chance to view on the subject so far. I don’t have any idea where you get all your data but keep it coming! I am going to send some individuals on over to take a look at this post. Awesome, totally amazing. I am just getting into spitting out articles myself, nothing compared to your writing skills (doh) but I would love for you to look over my stuff sometime! bowflex
