This is the first book-length history of Chinese teahouses in
either the English-speaking world or in China, examining economic,
social, political, and cultural changes as funneled through the
teahouses of Chengdu during the first half of the twentieth
century. The images that are brought together in this work paint a
complete picture of everyday culture in the most basic unit of
public life. This examination of the teahouse and public life from
the perspective of microhistory takes us into the depths of a city
to explore urban society in depth and provides a new way to look at
the Chinese city and at everyday culture.
