"Wolfe Lowenthal's quiet little memoir will with window-opening
wisdom reinforce, I think, my view of how Cheng stood on Tai Chi.
It tells how a young writer reacted to this strange Chinese man
when he appeared in New York City in the mid-1960s and stayed there
for a decade before returning to Taiwan to die in 1975. In a nickel
town where neurosis is a cardinal virtue, the Tai Chi center
established by Cheng soon became an oasis of learning. In my visits
there I was invariably approached by a quiet fellow with a ready
smile and loads of questions. His form and sensing hands improved
but he never lost his kindly ways. This led me once to tell the
three seniors that the one person in the club who best exemplified
Tai Chi was this junior. That man who has since become a teacher of
the art is the author if this book."
