Hardbound. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. A foreign visitor's impressions of China and the Chinese in 1925. While lamenting the 'inscrutability' of the Chinese mind, Steep still has a keen eye for details and differences, and an obvious affection for the people. One particularly astute observation relates to his confidence in the positive role that women will play in China's future development. Occasionally tongue-in-cheek, and much of his observations are politically incorrect by today's standards, but certainly entertaining reading. viii, 223 pp. Size: 21 x 15 cm.
