Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In a Mule Litter to the Tomb of Confucius Before setting out on a journey, the intending traveller is often loaded with warnings and advice by those who have, or are supposed to have, some experience. Let me warn my readers, before they set out, that they must not expect anything thrilling. I had no hair-breadth escapes, nor was I privileged to snatch any one from imminent death. Still, those who accompany me with eyes and ears open in this strange land may see and hear things that will go far to repay them for their trouble. Let me say first of all, then, that foreigners who have been accustomed with anything like macadamised roads can have little or no idea of the meaning of the word "road" as applied to the highways of Shantung - the Province in China in which this journey was made.
