From Wikipedia: "Chiang Yee (1903 1977), self-styled as "The Silent Traveller", was a Chinese poet, author, painter and calligrapher.The books characteristically bring a fresh 'sideways look' in a peaceful and non-judgemental way to places perhaps unfamiliar at the time to a Chinese national: the author was struck by things the locals might not notice, such as beards, or the fact that the so-called Lion's Haunch on Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh is actually far more like a sleeping elephant. In his wartime books, Chiang Yee made it plain that he was fervently opposed to Nazism. His writings exude a feeling of positive curiosity, life-enhancing in a unique way." Every effort is made to ship all books and other items within 24 hours. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible.
