China, Past and Present (Classic Reprint)
Events have succeeded each other so rapidly inC hina, that a kv months often suffice to convert intelligent anticipations into irrevocable history. This being so, the reader who honours these pages with perusal must charitably make allowances for views expressed under conditions which have, in some instances, now become obsolete. In a few cases as, for instance, the first chapter the matter appears in print for the first time. In others, paragraphs, and even whole pages, have been entirely rewritten or recast. Acknowledgments are due to several senates, societies, faculties, and associations ;also to the editors and publishers of many magazines, for their uniform kindness in allowing the present republication in book form. In particular I am requested to state that theL etter from theE mperor of China to King George the Third is reprinted by permission from theN ineteentli Century; the three articles Diet and Medicine, Life of aC hinese Mandarin, and The Imperial Manchu Family, by permission from the Cornhill Magazine; the paper on The Chinese I mbroglio, by permission from the Asiatic Quarterly Review ;that on The Multifarious Duties of aB ritish Consul, by permission from Temple Bar ;and that on Chinese Sports, by permission from theB adminton Magazine, The map of China, based upon the lateD r. Bretschneider sfirst(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
