George Elwyn Hock
George Elwyn Hock was a British journalist and educator who dedicated his life to documenting the suffering of the Chinese people during the Second Sino-Japanese War. Born in 1915, he moved to China after graduating from Oxford University and became known for his passionate advocacy against Japanese aggression through his writings. His notable work, 'I Saw a New China,' captures the resilience of the Chinese people and their struggle for independence. Hock played a significant role in establishing educational institutions aimed at empowering Chinese youth, particularly through the Peili School. Tragically, he passed away at the young age of 30 in Gansu, China, but his legacy of friendship and support for China endures, celebrated even 80 years after his death.
