Description
This 1859 translation of a reworked journal of the first French ambassadorial party to China seeks to use the precedents found in primary evidence to positively inform contemporary attitudes to the Chinese during the Opium Wars. The lucid and engaging translation makes this an accessible source on nineteenth-century Anglo-Chinese relations.
