{"product_id":"cowboy-on-the-steppes","title":"Cowboy on the Steppes","description":"In 1968, as part of Mao’s Cultural Revolution, thousands of teenagers were “relocated.” The artist’s brother was sent to a place that could not have been more different from his crowded, noisy Beijing home. He was sent to the steppes to live with Mongolian herdsmen.\n\nThe studious, gentle, city boy had much to learn: he had to memorize the faces of his cattle; he had to learn to ride with the greatest horsemen in the world; he had to adjust to food, clothing, and scenery wildly different from anything he had ever known.\n\nDespite the hard life, he grew to love Mongolia. His respect for the people who befriended him and his admiration for them were recorded in his diaries.\n\nSong Nan Zhang’s gorgeous paintings are the perfect complement to an unforgettable true story.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 088776410X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.088776410X.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Zhang, Song Nan\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
