Originally published in 1904. The following 'Notes' were not penned
in the presumptuous hope of adding materially to the existing
knowledge of the subjects with which they deal. The first part of
this book was the result of much reading, while the account of the
author's various experiences at the Chinese Court were undertaken
with a view to faithfully putting on record the manner of those
receptions in which, after so long and rigorous a seclusion, the
reigning Son of Heaven and his Imperial Mother at last condescended
(driven no doubt by foreign pressure) to put aside the veil which
for centuries had shrouded the faces of majesty in China.
