Ladies and Gentlemen 
I would love to know the name of a book I read some time ago but which
I have since mislaid. The book is  a true story of a couple who lived
in Australia and visit the Peoples Republic of China in (I think)
1963. At the time Australia is one of the first Western countries to
have an agreement with the Peoples Republic of China to allow
Australians to do tours of the PRC. I remember few details about the
book except the story narrated by the wife also happens to be an
American citizen.
Before entering China  she does not mention that she is American (I am
assuming that she like her husband has an Australian passport)
 During her visit , she is concerned that her Chinese hosts will find
out that she is an American (as Sino - US relations were to say the
least a bit touchy at the time) As it turns her Chinese tour guides
have known all along about her American background.
The only other details I can remember is that the book was probably written 
sometime in the mid-late eighties and the name of the Australian Tour
operator/Travel Agency began with an "O".
Sincerely 
Bhutan
