Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Hong Kong, Oxford University Press, 1991, Very Good hardcover, with VG dust jacket. 6 X 9 by two inches. Green cloth and DJ. Although this is probably an unread copy but the acidic pages have turned brown. Contents: L.C. Arlington: an American who had served in the Customs and Postal Administrations since his arrival in China in 1879 - William Lewisohn, a British Army officer turned journalist - These unlikely but happy partners had seen Peking at the pinnacle of its glory. This book is the outcome of their determination to record the delights, both major and minor, of the city they had known. The descriptions of the buildings and monuments are set within the wider context of Chinese history and are entertainingly illuminated by anecdotes about northern Chinese life and customs.
