Features: The streets of the city were narrow and winding, uneven and dirty, and smelled foul. The streets were always crowded with bustling crowds, and it was only near that the city had police to maintain public order. However, once riots broke out, the role of these police was never demonstrated. During those traumatic days at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, what kind of life did our ancestors live on the land of China? What turmoil and changes did they experience? What cultural traditions and outdated customs did they uphold? What were the specific conditions of the metropolis, rural areas, and all social strata? The author of this book examines this magical land from a unique perspective and viewpoint of a foreigner, recording his observations and amazements in vivid language. This book retains a large number of old photographs, truly recreating those not-so-distant yet full-of-suffering years. This book may not be comprehensive, but it is real.
