Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Attache at Peking These letters were written many years ago, but in China, and especially at Peking, the old order changes slowly, and they are at any rate a faithful record of the life which was led by those whose duties lay, as the Chinese say, "within the walls." They profess no more than that. Those who wish to learn more about China and Chinese manners must go to that monumental work of the late Dr. Wells Williams, The Middle Kingdom, to Sir John Davies´s fascinating book. The Chinese, or to Professor Douglas´s book on Chinese society. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
