Mr. Xie Jie-ru's (謝介如) hand writings constitute the main part of this Chinese calligraphy book. The post remark was written by Wang Bang-shou (王邦綬), who had worked in the Emperor’s Academy (翰林院) in Peking in the late Qing Dynasty, the Xuantong Dynasty (宣統). (A.D. 1909-1911). Wang Bang-shou could have been as a supervisor to teach sons of the famous warlord/politician Yuan Shi-kai (袁世凱). To Wang Bang-shou, the author Raymond Gao shall call him the great-grandfather. Each original sheet looks like a frame-shaped square of 28 x 28 cm, with 8 x 8 character-space. There is a vertical folding line in the middle of the sheet, which divides it into two pages, which were combined into one page in this eBook. There are about a thousand and five hundred beautiful Chinese characters for readers to follow. Four poems by Wen Zhengming in his own writing style were included. Few pages were contributed by Gao's family members. The cover used Johnson Gao's painting in the famous Qi Bai-shi's form.
