Soft cover. Zustand: Good. xv, 479 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm. Foreword ". a certain man of the Tang dynasty, after drinking seven bowls of tea, experienced a stirring of air under the armpits, and felt like flying to heaven." (p. 110) In the above inimitable style, Arthur Cornaby strings together his twenty-four precious peach stones of stories, tales, legends and the like, picked up here and there along the highways and byways of central China between 1849-1867. Against a background of the Taiping Rebellion, the author presents a series of character sketches from normal village life, enacted through Nieh Shu-k'ing, the village schoolmaster who goes on to take his B.A. degree and eventually ends up an opium addict. His adopted son, Seng-teh, kidnapped by the Taiping rebels, escapes to become an imperialist soldier hero. This fascinating book about old China describes in vivid detail the initial Christian nature of the Taiping Rebellion and numerous historical and legendary characters. Donald G. Campbell 1988.…
