The Sand Pebbles
Engineering student Jake Holman is ordered to guard a tributary of the Yangtze River in the midst of exploited and revolution-torn 1926 China. The gunboat U.S.S. San Pablo is escorted by the U.S. Navy. Eventually, his iconoclasm and sardonic attitude come up against the ship's "rice-bowl" structure of commanding officers, as well as the uneasy coexistence of Chinese and foreigners on board. The anti-gunboat sentiment reaches a boiling point when the boat is forced to crash through a river-boom in order to rescue missionaries upriver at China Light Mission.
