Description
Canberra: Nautical Assn of Australia, 1988. First edition. "Of all the seas conquered by steamships in the nineteenth century, none has excercised such fascination as those around the China coast. Apart from all natural and man-made hazards, the unique institutions of the treaty ports and extraterritoriality, the omni-present gunboats, the dynamic interplay of western and Chinese business, and the richness of life ashore made it a world of its own." Bound in navy blue cloth with gold lettering on spine. Fine condition in dj.. 24.5 cm. 329 pp. b/w plates
