Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. China. Her Life and Her People. Shelf wear to edge of D/J. Small piece of D/J. missing to top front edge of D/J. Price clipped to D/J. This book has a purpose. It is written for those who desire a better understanding of China, her country and her people. From the great conflict in which she became involved when she was invaded by Japan, a new China has emerged. The nations who watch her from afar see her as a wide ocean lashed by the wind ti a furious turmoil of riotous waves. At the moment all seems disorder and chaos, but the Chinese themselves are aware of a profound stability which is like the untroubled calm of ocean waters which lie too deep for any storm to disturb. Superficial matters are changing in China but the great foundations of democracy, of reasonableness, of tolereence, of respect for human relationships, of culture and of appreciation of beatury in all its forms remain. The writers of this book in the course of a lifetime spent in China have watched her emergence and wish to share their knowledge of the Chinese people with all who desire to understand them better. Illustrated. 160 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Hard. First Edition. China: Her Life and Her People by Mildred Cable and Francesca French is a social and cultural study of Chinese society written by two long-term residents and travelers in inland China. Drawing on firsthand observation and close contact with local communities, the book presents a detailed account of everyday life rather than political history. Cable and French describe family structures, social customs, religious beliefs, festivals, and patterns of work, with particular attention to rural life and the experiences of ordinary people. They also discuss the position of women, education, and the influence of Confucian values on social relations. Written in an accessible narrative style, the book seeks to introduce Western readers to Chinese society with sympathy and detail, though it reflects the missionary background and cultural assumptions of its time. Overall, the work offers a vivid social portrait of China in the early twentieth century, emphasizing lived experience and cultural practice over formal historical analysis.Over 60 plates along with 5 illustrations.
