Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Green Plums and a Bamboo Horse. Previous owners name written neatly to inside cover. Browning to edges of D/J. Price clipped to D/J. Plastic protective covering. This is the first book to be written about Formosda by an Englishman since before the Sino-Japanese war. Very few English people have lived in Chiang Kai-shek's Formosa; for one thing they are not very welcome since Britain recognises Peking and not Taipei. But the author and his Malayan-Chinese wife did live there and he gives what he describes as a street-level biew of it. This is not a political book, but, inevitably, since the country is on a war footing, politics inpringe on everyday life. It is a picture of an island as it is seen today, drawn on the background of its history, where Taiwanese immigrants whose ancestors come from Fukien several centuries ago live side by side with the two millions refugees who have come from the mainland of China since the rise of Communism. Illustrated. 194 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
