Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Life in China and America The first five chapters of this book give an account of my early education, previous to going to America, where it was continued, first at Monson Academy, in Monson, Massachusetts, and later, at Yale College. The sixth chapter begins with my reëntrance into the Chinese world, after an absence of eight years. Would it not be strange, if an Occidental education, continually exemplified by an Occidental civilization, had not wrought upon an Oriental such a metamorphosis in his inward nature as to make him feel and act as though he were a being coming from a different world, when he confronted one so diametrically different? This was precisely my case, and yet neither my patriotism nor the love of my fellow-countrymen had been weakened. On the contrary, they had increased in strength from sympathy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forty Years in China: Or China in Transition I am fully persuaded that the Chinese have many admirable qualities; qualities that have made, and are destined still to make them a great nation. Yet I would be a false friend to that people to whose elevation I have consecrated my life, and of whom I'have so much hope in the future, were I not to speak plainly of the influences that are hurrying them on to ruin unless speedily checked by their acceptance of progress from the West, and that Divine religion, which, though originating in the East, is now propagated from the West. Hoping that God's blessing may rest upon this slight tribute toward promoting His truth, I commit it to the public, hoping it may throw some light upon the new Eastern question.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Village and Town Life in China Many books have been written about China by Europeans. The present volume is a book about China by two Chinese. They are, moreover, Chinese who have had considerable opportunities of studying other forms of civilization than their own, having lived in England as students for some years. Mr. Tao obtained the b.sc. Degree in Economics at the University of London in 1913, and is now lecturing on Sociology in the University of Pekin. Mr. Leong took the same degree in 1914, and is still a student in the Sociological Department at the London School of Economics. Both have interested themselves especially in social philosophy and the comparative study of institutions, so that if they justly regard their own institutions with the feelings of patriotic Chinese, they are able equally to see them in relation to the customs of other peoples, and to review their merits and defects with a certain detachment. No doubt their point of View is not always that of the English reader. But, on the other hand, the point of view of Europeans who write on China is not that of Chinese, and for the full understanding of a great Empire, which.

Do not nine out of ten, even among well-informed English gentlemen, consider the first named a place with which we have little in common though it be a British possession, or at all events of little momentous interest? And are they not of opinion that its contingent loss need not, to any material extent, affect our national prosperity? Yet Hong Kong, apart from its military and naval value as our most advanced outpost in the far East, and from its commercial interest represented by an annual average British exchange of about forty-two millions sterling, is marked by characteristic advantages unparalleled in any single one of our other possessions.

This was followed some years later (1901) by Mount Omi and Beyond, which introduced us to the little-known region of Szechuan on the Thibetan Border and to a phase of Chinese life, untouched as yet by foreign intercourse, which his linguistic acquirements and experience enabled him to depict with the perception and sense of humour that had delighted his readers in the previous work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Life Currents in China The present hour is a crucial one in the history of China. Never has she faced such unparalleled Opportunities Or been confronted by graver perils. For a time her very life seemed to hang in the balance. But we believe the real crisis passed with the sudden ending of the European war, and that the changes sure to be brought about during this period Of world building will strengthen and make permanent the country's foundations. China is not like ancient Egypt, Whose greatness has departed though she still lives on. China is a vital force whose largest possibilities of develop ment lie before and not behind her. A new, fresh life is beginning to course through the nation's veins. How can this new life be fostered so there will not be the awful waste which has weakened China almost to the breaking point? The conservation of the physical, mental, mate rial, and, above all, the spiritual life of China and the Chinese people at this present time, - What a theme for our consideration! It will be seen that I have said but little, except indirectly, about the work being done in China by more than six thousand missionaries representing over one hundred mission boards of the British Empire, the United States, and Europe.
