Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Soul of the Far East Who but is the daily dupe of his dressing glass, and complacently conceives himself to be a very different appearing person from what he is, forgetting that his right side has become his left, and vice verso Yet who, when by chance he catches sight in like manner of the face of a friend, can keep from smiling at the caricatures which the mirror's left-for-right reversal makes of the asymmetry of that friend's features, caricatures all the more grotesque for being utterly unsuspected by their innocent orig inal?

Book The Re Shaping of the Far East  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Re Shaping of the Far East Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by B. L. Putnam Weale and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Re-Shaping of the Far East, Vol. 1 The kind reception accorded by both the English and American Press and public to a first book dealing exhaustively with the Russians in Manchuria, and exposing the true position of the Northern Colossus in the coveted Chinese provinces, has made me suppose that a second work treating the whole Far East in the same intimate manner may likewise do something towards correcting the many erroneous impressions which are fast growing up as one of the immediate results of the war. This second volume is, therefore, in many respects a sequel to the first, and deals mainly with the Northern Far East - that is, the territories lying north of the Yangtsze. The whole story of the past decade in China, Manchuria, Korea, and Japan has been a most curious one, and the manner in which all these countries have become entangled with one another and with rival European nations is probably without parallel in the world's history.

The Govern ment soldiers, called Imperialists, had closely invested the city on all sides except the Foreign Settlement, which the Treaty Consuls would not suffer them to occupy, and, as supplies of food and munitions continued to reach the rebels through this unguard'ed channel, this naturally created unpleasant relations between the native soldiery and foreigners.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Far East: Its History and Its Question The aim of the present volume is to afi'ord in handy form a complete account of the history of the countries of the Far East, in so far as they have come into contact with Western civilisation. In carrying out this scheme, I have not deemed it necessary to dwell upon ancient history, beyond indicating the events which have served to bring the Occident and Orient together. I commence with an account of the earlier phases of Eastern Asia, sufficient to en able the reader to appreciate the conditions under which the Pacific borderland was first visited by the emissaries of Europe. From this point I have followed the story of the Far East in some detail, in the hope that the record thus presented may answer the requirements of the poli tical student who seeks to obtain a clear understanding of the problems involved.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sequel to Some Glimpses Into Life in the Far East IN my Preface to Glimpses into Life in the Far East, I Stated that if that work should be deemed worthy of public attention, I would bring out a second volume. Months went past, and I was held in suspense. The booksellers objected to place an anonymous book upon their shelves, and I could not find fault with their hesitation; for I felt that a work without the guarantee of a name could, at the outset of its existence, command but small claims to confidence. At the same time my antici pations of financial success were moderate: I was content to obtain a few hundred readers; and my ambition was that my readers should peruse the work with attention, and carefully consider the various subjects on which it treated.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Within the Gateways of the Far East Diminishing number of persons who have distinguished themselves by never visiting the Orient. These pages were prepared more particularly for the perusal of personal friends and they may be regarded as an apology for an extended absence from home. They do not form an absolutely complete compendium of routes, distances, areas, populations, rainfalls, products, languages, customs, vital statistics of Lama priests, and similar informing items which fill more important and conventional books of travel. The omission of any such details is due to the cruel limitations of space imposed by the high cost of printing. Compensation is offered in the original and profound observations made by the author, whose ignorance of geography, history, science, and religion enables him to write with such abandon and assurance as characterize all who have spent a few days in the Far East. The value of the volume will ever remain a matter of personal opinion, to which those who. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
