‎Boyd Julia‎

‎A Dance With the Dragon: The Vanished World of Peking's Foreign Colony‎

‎8vo, hardcover, pp. 263. Julia Boyd tells the fascinating tale of the foreign community surviving in Peking between the end of the Ching Dynasty and Mao s communist revolution. It is a great story very well told - turmoil behind, turmoil ahead and turmoil all around. --Chris Patten, Chancellor of Oxford University, Chairman of the BBC and former Governor of Hong Kong Based on a treasure-trove of original sources, this book gives an enthralling insight into the expatriate community in Peking during the half-century before the triumph of Mao. Anyone who wants to understand China's relationship with foreigners, today as well as yesterday, should read it. --Piers Brendon, author of The Decline and Fall of the British Empire A fascinating account sourced from many previously unpublished letters and archives. Boyd's characters flit on the surface of the city like water beetles, unaware of the depths below. --Frances Wood, Curator of Chinese Collections, British Library, author of China's First Emperor and His Terracotta Warriors. '...with its fresh insights into this historic non-meeting of minds, [A Dance With the Dragon] appears at an opportune moment.' --Literary Review A fascinating account sourced from many previously unpublished letters and archives. Boyd's characters flit on the surface of the city like water beetles, unaware of the depths below. --Frances Wood, Curator of Chinese Collections, British Library, author of China's First Emperor and His Terracotta Warriors. 'Boyd s volume stands alone as a valuable history of our foreign predecessors, but also offers a healthy reminder of the responsibilities incumbent upon those who make China their home.' --Asian Review of Books A fascinating account sourced from many previously unpublished letters and archives. Boyd's characters flit on the surface of the city like water beetles, unaware of the depths below. --Frances Wood, Curator of Chinese Collections, British Library, author of China's First Emperor and His Terracotta Warriors. 'It is as much a glimpse of a corner of the fashionable intellectual life of Europe and America in exile as it is a guide to the vanished world of Peking itself.' --Asian Affairs A fascinating account sourced from many previously unpublished letters and archives. Boyd's characters flit on the surface of the city like water beetles, unaware of the depths below. --Frances Wood, Curator of Chinese Collections, British Library, author of China's First Emperor and His Terracotta Warriors.

‎Cina. L'irresistibile Ascesa‎

‎8vo, br.ed. 256pp. L'eterotopia, il significato del comunismo cinese e la visione di Mao, la Rivoluzione culturale, l'avvento di Deng Xiaoping, i complessi e delicati rapporti di Xi Jinping con gli Stati Uniti. Lo sguardo di Bradanini abbraccia l'evolversi della Repubblica Popolare sin dalla sua nascita nel 1949. La Cina, paese immenso e dalla storia plurimillenaria, è ancora poco conosciuta nella sua complessità. Questo libro, opera ambiziosa e non effimera, scava alle radici della civiltà cinese e aiuta a comprendere non solo politica ed economia del gigante orientale, ma anche il modo di pensare dei suoi abitanti e il loro rapportarsi con il mondo. La lunga esperienza dell'autore sul campo, come console generale a Hong Kong e ambasciatore d'Italia a Pechino, conferisce al testo particolare autorevolezza e spessore.‎

‎The Master of Rain AWARD FINALIST‎

‎New York New York U.S.A.: Doubleday 2002. First edition May 2002 so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. 452 pages. A BARRY AWARD FINALST and a STEEL DAGGER AWARD FINALIST. Shanghai 1926. A city glistening with decadence and rife with corruption--a humid bustling society at the cultural crossroads of British civil servants American gun runners Russian princesses and Chinese gangsters. For Richard Field a young Englishman new to the international police force Shanghai represents a brave new world away from the past he is trying to escape. But his naiveté is quickly dashed when he is called to the scene of a brutal crime in which a young Russian woman Lena Orlov has been found sadistically murdered in her bed. Field's idealistic instincts push him to investigate the case but his attempts are met with apathy--then menace--from his colleagues. He begins to recognize that some cases in Shanghai are intended to remain unsolved and in a matter of days he glimpses the murky depths that lurk beneath a luminous city. Field's drive to find the murderer leads him to Lena's neighbor Natasha Medvedev. A stunning beauty who fled her charmed life in tsarist Russia Natasha escaped the Revolution but landed like many of her counterparts in a treacherous life in Shanghai. Natasha travels in an elite circle--one that orbits Field knows around the city’s most feared drug lord Lu Huang. As his attraction to the beguiling Natasha grows he is faced with a piercing question: can he trust someone whose only goal is self-preservation And is it wise to fall in love with a woman who may herself be the next victim Trusting only his Chicago-hardened American partner Caprisi Field follows leads that run into the heart of a lawlessly corrupt city slowly uncovering a web of deception that will leave him reeling.

‎Bradley Camp Davis‎

‎Imperial Bandits: Outlaws and Rebels in the China-Vietnam Borderlands‎

‎8vo, br. ed.pp.266. The Black Flags raided their way from southern China into northern Vietnam, competing during the second half of the nineteenth century against other armed migrants and uplands communities for the control of commerce, specifically opium, and natural resources, such as copper. At the edges of three empires (the Qing empire in China, the Vietnamese empire governed by the Nguyen dynasty, and, eventually, French Colonial Vietnam), the Black Flags and their rivals sustained networks of power and dominance through the framework of political regimes. This lively history demonstrates the plasticity of borderlines, the limits of imposed boundaries, and the flexible division between apolitical banditry and political rebellion in the borderlands of China and Vietnam. Imperial Bandits contributes to the ongoing reassessment of borderland areas as frontiers for state expansion, showing that, as a setting for many forms of human activity, borderlands continue to exist well after the establishment of formal boundaries.‎

‎Brady, Anne-Marie‎

‎Making the Foreign Serve China: Managing Foreigners in the People s Republic‎

‎8vo, hardcover, illustrated edition. 320 pages. This book provides the first detailed analysis of a distinctive element of Chinese foreign policy, waishi, the external policies intended to influence and control both foreigners themselves as well as Chinese citizens contact with and perception of outsiders. The term also comprises China s external relations-both official state-to-state and unofficial or people-to-people diplomacy. Anne-Marie Brady argues that by encompassing all matters related to foreigners and foreign things, not merely diplomacy, waishi has proven to be one of the most effective tools in the CCP s repertoire for building and then sustaining its hold on power. The author s groundbreaking research is based on a previously unexplored genre of classified waishi materials, extensive interviews with waishi officials and foreign participants of the system, as well as extensive archival research‎

Kai Lung Unrolls His Mat like the others in the series consists of thinly connected stories related by Kai Lung concerning the adventures of the storyteller and his lady love Hwa-Mei versus the wicked but ever-smooth Mandarin Shan Tien and his despicable accomplice Ming-Shu. Kai Lung's adventures are related with humor and irony his shrewdness and wisdom conveyed in euphemisms paradoxes and parables. Bramah's droll writing style went a long way toward making the Kai Lung series so popular." ; unusual ; FAIR Garden City, N.Y. : Doubleday, Doran, & Company, 1928. hardcover‎
