China in the closing days of its Imperial era are captured in the
drawings and paintings of the artist Mortimer Menpes, noted for his
portrayals of the Far East, with text by Sir Henry Arthur Blake,
who served as Governor of Hong Kong. Blake writes with elegant
authority on Chinese life, customs and landscape, including the
Temples of the Seven Star Hills, Opium, Life on the Yangtse, Flower
Boats, Curious Forms of Gambling and the Houses of the Wealthy, and
the pages are enlivened by Menpes' marvellous drawings that bring
the narrative to life. Now that interest in traditional China has
never been greater, the publication of this classic treasure is
indeed timely.
