This book, first published in 1875 and reissued in 1973, analyses
the limited evidence from the works of early Chinese historians
that explorers from China had discovered a country they called
Fusang - possibly western America, and in all probability Mexico.
The original document on which Chinese historians based their
accounts of Fusang was the report of a Buddhist monk called
Hoei-shin, who, in the year 499 AD, returned from a long journey to
the east.
