Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good +. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Warmly inscribed on the front flyleaf in dipped ink by the author. The introduction is written by J. C. Owen, Ph.D., D. D., (Rev. Dr. Jesse Coleman Owen, 1870-1955), a missionary to China for over a decade. As per the cover, Dr. W. Y. Wu was an American Citizen who spent many years in Asia and came intimately into contact with conditions herein described. This rare, first edition copy is bound in red publisher's cloth with gilt lettering stamped on the cover and spine. 90 pp. Light discoloration within endpapers and mildly toned leaves. This copy is unmarked, except for the author's inscription. Gently bumped corners at the foot. Hinges are strong and the binding is quite sound. VG+ dust jacket in red with black lettering. Lightly worn with some fading at the spine. EXCERPT FROM THE FORWARD: "A strikingly unusual, and altogether interesting book Dr. Wu has given us in this vivid story of China's struggle for freedom and reform. It begins with the close of the Boxer uprising, and with kaleidoscopic vividness carries the reader through subtle intrigue practiced in Chinese disguise by participants in the Japanese-Russian War, leads on through the Chinese Revolution under the distinguished Dr. Sun Yat Sen, and gives a look into the crusade against the cruel practice of 'feet binding,' and into other reforms."A unique, very nice copy. Full refund if not satisfied. Inscribed by the Author. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 076684
