Heinrich Hackmann (1864-1935) war ein deutscher Theologe und Sinologe. Neben seiner Arbeit als Pfarrer und Pastor verfolgte er stets sein Interesse fur die chinesische Kultur. Zehn Jahre lang wohnte er in China und reiste schliesslich einige Jahre spater erneut in den Osten Asiens. Tief von seinen Eindrucken und Erfahrungen gepragt, schrieb er vorliegendes Buch, das seine personlichen Hohepunkte jener Reise vereint. Dabei schildert er auch, wie sich das Land in kurzer Zeit gewandelt hat. Qualitativ hochwertiger Nachdruck der Originalausgabe von 1912
