Great blessings! My book, FINDING SAMUEL LOWE, has been translated to Chinese and is being released in China on Friday 11/18 with a big media event at the Shenzhen Library.
My first cousin, Luo Minjun, along with me and three other authors will have our books released simultaneously by Shenzhen Publishing -- first time ever such a large book release has occurred in Shenzhen, city of 30+ million people and where our ancestral village, Lowe Swee Hap, is located.
Both books honor our Grandfather Lowe Ding Chow, whose Western name was Samuel Lowe. Our grandfather is pictured here. My brothers, Howard Williams, left, Elrick Williams, and our first cousin Luo Minjun, who authored the blue book. Mine is the red book.
And most importantly, our mother Nell Lowe Williams, who inspires us each and every day.
