The article on Salvador de Madariaga lists Heart of Jade as being published in English in 1942. I attended Dumfries Academy in 1933 and Kilmarnock Academy in 1935. At one of those two schools, it was practice for the form tutor to read from a selected novel on Friday afternoons and one of the books which was read was Heart of Jade. My parents bought a copy for me as a birthday present and I took it with me during a tour of the West Indies in 1937-1940. I lost my copy during our return to England on the French ship 'De la Salle' in April/May 1940.

There must have been a previous translation. Can anyone confirm the publication date of a translation prior to 1942? Gbhumphrey (talk) 02:19, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
