Excerpt from A Little Journey to China and JapanThe Chinese proudly boast that their government is the oldest on the globe; that China was a nation five thousand years before the United States was born; that they have books from three to four thousand years old; that they used the printing -press a thousand years before it was used in Europe. More than four thousand years ago these pe0p1e knew how to make brick from clay, how to build canals, how to sing, and play on musical instruments, how to write, and how to calculate the movements of the stars; also, they had domestic animals, cultivated the fields, and had forms of worship and government.They know little of modern inventions and ma chinery, but they have a wonderful skill in handicraft, and their artists and artisans are in many lines not equaled by those of any other country.They tell us, also, that their race numbers more than one-fourth of all the people on the globe, and that their territory includes more than acres of ground, or more than the United States.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ...he goes in the spring to pray for a favorable season, and then to set the plows of China going, by himself starting a little furrow with a goldhandled plow. In Peking are the National University; the ancient Observatory; the Imperial Palace, with its beautiful gardens, and their quaint Camel's Back Bridge; and noted Buddhist temples, with fine architecture, extensive grounds, elegant furniture, and giant images of Buddha, with smaller images of saints in the lesser halls. And yet the streets of the city are abominable, being in bad condition, dirty, foul smelling, and having manure heaps or pools of stagnant water on every hand.

We drop into the marketplaces to see what is for sale. There are many varieties of fish; the choicest of fruits in abundance, including oranges, loquats, citrons, rose-apples, bananas, litchis (lee'chees), papayas, and grapes; mutton, kid, pork, deer, dogs, squirrels, quails, pheasants, chickens, ducks, rats, and grasshoppers; and squashes, edible bamboo, melons, water coltrops, rice, beans, peas, taro, peanuts, sweet potatoes, and yams. We pass stores selling tinsel paper, plain or in various shapes, to be burned in religious ceremonies, in honor of ancestors, or at funerals; bird stores and bird-pedlers selling warblers and pigeons; bookstores selling great heavy volumes that few persons read, but which the rich purchase for their libraries; and drug stores that sell pounded tiger bones to give strength, and extracts of dogs and cats, or mixtures of various bugs and plants as cures for disease.
