The Yellow River: A Journey Through China
NPR's Rob Gifford returns to China for another series about the changes taking place in the country. This time, he focuses on the Yellow River -- a bed of cultural development for thousands of years, the river now faces environmental, political, and social challenges.
Tune in during All Things Considered (4-6:30 p.m. M-F on KCUR) every day, starting Dec. 10th.
Rob Gifford was NPR's correspondent in Beijing for six years. His book, CHINA ROAD: A Journey into the Future of a Rising Power was published in 2007 by Random House. CHINA ROAD tells of his 3,000 mile odyssey across China, following the country's equivalent of the US Route 66 –- called Route 312 — all the way from Shanghai to the Kazakh border. The book is based upon a seven-part radio series that Gifford filed for Morning Edition.
