The Travelers' Handbook for China

More about the book

This thoroughly revised edition reflects the significant changes China has undergone in recent years. The initial expectation of a straightforward update proved overly optimistic, as nearly every paragraph from the second edition required modification. What was anticipated to be a few months of revision extended over nearly a year. Despite the challenges, every effort has been made to ensure the volume is as current as possible, though it is acknowledged that no guide can be completely accurate in a country evolving so rapidly. Special thanks are due to those who contributed to this revision, particularly Mrs. Samuel Gouling, whose meticulous proofreading and extensive knowledge of China greatly enhanced the book's value.
