Softbound. Zustand: Fine. First Edition. Robert van Gulik researched and wrote prolifically on a wide range of Asian subjects, such as Chinese scroll mounting, sexual life in China and the Chinese lute - an instrument that he was also mastered as a musician. In addition to his more esoteric writings, van Gulik achieved wide popular fame as the author of a series of mystery novels based on the life of semi-fictional Judge Dee in ancient China.
