The first edition of this work, which outlines China's treaty
engagements with various foreign powers, was published by Sir
Edward Hertslet (1824 1902) in 1896. The two-volume third edition
reissued here was published by his son Godfrey in 1908, and took
account of new treaties in the intervening twelve years which were
relevant to the Chinese sphere of influence. The work is remarkably
inclusive, and cross-refers with similar treaties between China and
different Western powers, as well as containing ancillary material
such as a ground-plan of the foreign legation district in Beijing,
and British government documents relevant to the various treaties.
This edition is of particular interest for students of
international law and diplomacy, as it covers the regulations
governing relations between China and Britain in the year in which
the last imperial Chinese ruler ascended the throne. Volume 1
contains the treaties.
