Foreign adventurers have been tramping around China for centuries,
and this book presents some of the best of the stories from the
dozens of travel memoirs published, particularly in the golden era
of the late nineteenth century. These accounts, abridged and
explained, concentrate on the gripping details with a constant
commentary on the significance of what is being recounted. They are
a window into old China and also into the mentality of the
adventurers. Lost China Travel Classics is a digestible and
exciting way of meeting some of the greatest travelers of a bygone
age.
