Paperback. Condizione: New. Ulaanbaatar Beyond Water and Grass is the first book in the English language that takes the visitors to an in-depth exploration of the capital of Mongolia. In the first section of the book, M. A.

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. This engaging and comprehensive hardcover guide, 'The Search for a Vanishing Beijing: A Guide to China's Capital Through the Ages,' by M.A. Aldrich, is presented in good condition. Please note, this copy lacks a dust jacket. Weaving together travel essays and historical narrative, Aldrich masterfully explores the rich cultural mosaic of China's capital. The author guides readers through ancient palaces, serene temples, bustling back streets, and vibrant markets, meticulously resurrecting forgotten or overlooked Peking customs, stories, and beliefs. The narrative is remarkably broad, touching on every facet of Beijing life, from Tian An Men Square and its surrounding neighborhoods to more rustic settings. It delves into imperial customs, diverse street food, lively temple festivals, historic trees, and even recounts tales of Red Guard struggle sessions, Tibetan and Mongolian traditions, hiking trails, political clashes, and the residences of famous Chinese and foreign personalities. Further captivating subjects include ghosts, prisons, classical Chinese poetry, ice-skating, espionage, burial customs, old and new embassy districts, courtesans, restaurants, and local Chinese liquor. The text is enriched with observations from a wide array of sources, ranging from historical figures like Marco Polo and Bernard Shaw to 20th-century Sinophiles such as Juliet Bredon, George Kates, and David Kidd. Insights from Ming and Qing era travel guides are also incorporated, providing a uniquely Chinese perspective on the city's celebrated locations. This book offers an immersive journey into the heart and soul of Beijing, both past and present.…

We Walk Alone - Through LESBO'S Lonely Groves (Gold Medal #S774; 5/1958; 3rd Paperback edition; USA); GGA - Good Girl Art Painted Cover by Jack Floherty Jr; "There is a little of the female in every man, and a little of the male in every woman. When the lesser characteristics dominate, the individual is apt to develop a personality that varies and deviates from what we consider normal. Instincts, urges, tastes and desires fall into the pattern of the opposite sex. They are known as homosexuals. It is a rare thing today to find a spokesman for the female homosexual like Ann Aldrich. With a reporter's eye she sees and reveals the character and personality of the lesbian, her passions and pursuits, her loves and despairs. Ann Aldrich, herself a member of the sisterhood, shows you, unsparingly, not only her own trials and tribulations, but those of all who live, like her, in the twilight world of the sexes. She leaves one with the conviction that the lesbian merits neither pity nor scorn, but only sympathy and understanding"; Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" Tall.
