Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the prefatory note to Mr. Worcester's earlier book--"Junks and Sampans of the Upper Yangtze"-Sir Frederick Maze, former Inspector General of Customs, pointed out that the Chinese have probably shown more originality than any other people in connection with shipbuilding, and commented on their ingenuity in designing vessels to suit special requirements and different conditions. Mr. Worcester's present book, which deals with the craft of the Yangtze Estuary, provides further striking evidence of the high degree of specialization in design and function achieved by Chinese shipbuilders. Steam and internal combustion engines, with their superior speed and economy, have already supplanted the sail and the oar on certain routes and in certain types of vessels, and these developments must inevitably continue, but even to-day an immense tonnage of cargo, and uncounted thousands of passengers, are carried by the junks and sampans described in this book. -- Prefactory note.

Book Synopsis Gunboat on the Yangtze by : Glenn F. Howell
Download or read book Gunboat on the Yangtze written by Glenn F. Howell and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-10-03 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captain Glenn F. Howell kept a detailed account of his activities in China for 62 years. His journals now make up 202 leather-bound volumes--one of the largest sources in existence, perhaps the largest, of servicemen's observations of service in China during that country's struggle to oust one power and come to grips with a new one between World War I and II. This work presents Howell's diary from June 6, 1920, to September 23, 1921, during which time he commanded the naval gunboat USS Palos on the Yangtze River. First comes a biography of Howell, an overview of Chinese history from 1800 to 1920, and a history of the United States military involvement in China during those years. Howell's time as commander of the USS Palos is divided into three sections. Preceding each, the editor comments on the nature of the upcoming diary entries. Howell covers a range of topics, including the Chinese people, various important locales (e.g., the Three Gorges), making official visits, (his first as a captain), officer-enlisted man relations, opium, the steam navy, people who influenced him (S. Cornell Plant and Captain Joseph Miclo, skipper of the Meitan), missionaries and other foreigners in China (including U.S. military retirees), and "trackers" (China's human beasts of burden.)
