Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels of the Russian Mission Through Mongolia to China, and Residence in Peking, in the Years L820-L821, Vol. 1 of 2 The Russian author, writing for his own coun trymen, who are less acquainted with China than other European nations, has incorporated with his work numerous extracts from English and French publications, which it seemed wholly superfluous to insert in our translation, and it has been decided to follow, in this respect, the French translation, which has had the advantage of being revised by that profound oriental scholar, Mr. J. Von Klaproth, who has enriched it with many interesting notes, and a valuable appendix, which we have also added to the English translation.
