Series consists of duplicates of films sent to the First Historical Archives of the People's Republic of China, under the auspices of the cultural exchange agreement between China and Canada. The particular subject files were selected by Chinese archival officials.

On the microfilms, the following information is captured: Endicott's personal records (schooling, marriage, ordination, etc.); "Direct Method English", a system of teaching English to Chinese-speakers, devised by Endicott; commentary on China under the war-lords and Chiang Kai-Shek; information on the Japanese occupation of China; Endicott's growing disenchantment with Chiang and his conversion to being a supporter of the revolutionary Communist movement; the mechanics of Communist victory; Communist China and the West, especially U.S. opposition to the acceptance of China into the world community; information on the Cold War and the Korean War; the Christian Church in China; and the world peace movement.

Researchers are cautioned that the microfilms hold only select files under the above rubrics and are an incomplete picture of the James G. Endicott fonds.
