Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From China and Some Eastern Sketches The aim of "Letters from China" is to convey an impression of life in the Far East as it appeared to an individual for whom the serious side of any subject has never possessed so powerful an attraction as has its humorous aspect. I offer this explanation in the hope that it may be regarded, by indulgent readers, as a plea in extenuation of the book's many faults. The stories are mainly incidents within the actual experience of the writer, who has attempted to portray them in their own Oriental colouring rather than by means of precisive literary expression.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters to a Chinese Official: Being a Western View of Eastern Civilization Three years ago a little volume entitled "Letters from a Chinese Official, being an eastern view of western civilization," was published by McClure, Phillips and Company and at once had a large sale. The author discussed Christian civilization as he found it in England, but in the introduction to the American edition he explained that the arguments presented by him applied with equal force to the United States. His indictment of the inconsistencies of Christians contains so much of truth and his arraignment of the conduct of Christian nations at home and abroad is in some respects so just that his words were received not only with appreciation but with gratitude. I recall how deeply I was myself impressed and how many Americans commented favorably upon his letters. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

One evening we had quite an unexpected glimpseof the Far East in the form Of a fete in Chinatown. The streets Of the quarter, crowded with Orientals, were brightly lighted and hung with gay ﬂags and banners. The little Chinese girls were adorable with their Shiny braids and daintily colored coats and trousers. The kiddies Of about eight or nine were evidently supposed to be selling confetti to visitors but as a matter Of fact they were Spending most Of their time, boylike, in hurling their wares at the passers-by, though this entailed much ardu ous labor in picking up the scattered bits Of paper and replacing them in the bags in which they were Offered for sale. Keen enjoyment was none the less apparent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters Far East The letters here republished consist of contributions written for the Westminster Gazette during a brief visit to China and Japan in the summer and autumn of 1906, together with some additions. I had travelled before in Kashgaria and the frontier pro vinces of China, reaching them by crossing Asia, but this was my first visit to the coast and the better known provinces of the empire. The main object of my journey was to obtain some practical know ledge of the languages and creeds of the Far East, and, in particular, to study the curious development which Buddhism has undergone in those countries for it is difficult to form a correct and comprehensive idea of the part which this religion has played in the world by the mere study of Sanskrit and Pali litera ture. I trust that I may some day be able to publish the result of these and other investigations in a con nected form.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Round the World: Letters From Japan, China, India, and Egypt I was not ordered abroad by the doctors, but started in perfect health, which I retained through all the vicissitudes of climate, and was so fortunate as not to meet with any serious mishap to mar the pleasure of the journey. Only once, during that eventful night of the typhoon on the Chinese coast, did I question my prudence in being there, without the excuse of ill-health or busi ness. My motive was not merely the pursuit of pleasure, but the desire to gratify a long-cherished passion to see once in my lifetime the strange and curious nations of the Orient, books of travel among whom have always had for me a strange fascination. In these sketches I have confined my descriptions, in a great measure, to what passed under my own observation; and have endeavored to paint the curious and novel scenes in Japan, China, and India, as they appeared to a fresh traveler, without any attempt at fine writing, or high- own description. The unexpected courtesy and kindness everywhere met from both foreigners and natives, and the many chance acquaintances which have ripened into friendships that will endure for a lifetime, are among the pleasantest souvenirs of my journey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chinese Letter = Writing: For Missionaries The contents of this booklet were prepared to serve as notes for a course of lessons given at the Kuling Language School, but have been considered of use to the missionary community in general. From the Chinese point of view, a missionary's task is to get men to learn the Doctrine, by his first having learnt the language in which that Doc trine is to be expressed. It behoves him, therefore, to learn that language in such a manner as to gain respect for his message, whether it be delivered in a spoken or written form. For the latter, he may be inclined to trust entirely to his Chinese pundit, but both he and his message will command the greater respect if he be able, with his own pen, to write with some degree of ﬂuency. Towards this end, he may gain practice through the medium of amateur letters to a few of his intimate Chinese friends for his faculties of composition for print in his own language have been gained, in the first instance, through practice in letter-writing to his own folks at home.
