Keeping up with the War God - Taiwan, as it seemed to me 1996-2001

Steven Crook, an Englishman, has been writing about Taiwan for various newspapers and magazines since 1996. This book is for travelers who are interested in delving beneath the surface of Taiwan’s main attractions and flashy facade. Excellent storytelling and meticulous research went into a finely crafted collection of personal memoirs. “This is the best account of life in Taiwan I know...” - Bradley Winterton, Taipei Times “...packed with interesting information about local culture...insights, which range from the humorous to the surprisingly profound...all of this is done in his well-written prose...” - Helen Will, China Post “Part travelogue, part history book, and part cultural expose, Keeping Up With the War God is an easy and entertaining read for anyone interested in piercing the veneer of modern-day Taiwan to delve a little deeper into its terrain, its traditions, and its inhabitants. ” - Celeste Heiter, ThingsAsian.com “While Crook is not always complimentary about Taiwanese culture, his passion and love for Taiwan always shines through.” - David Reid, David on Formosa
