The flourishing of photography as a medium in the mid-19th century coincided with a rise in curiosity about China on the part of the Western world. As the number of foreigners living and traveling in China increased, early photographs of China were taken by and for an international audience. Among the Celestials assembles 250 fascinating images of China in the second half of the 19th century and first half of the 20th, captured by the Western camera lens. The photographs portray the gritty side of the country as well as stunning views of palaces, temples, harbors, and gardens. This juxtaposition of the sordid and the serene provides a multidimensional picture of China's physical and social landscape before Mao Zedong's ascent to power changed the country forever. The photographs, many published here for the first time, are both beautiful and moving, and together offer a new understanding of a social and cultural history associated with a time of significant historical change.

Excerpt from Among the Celestials: A Narrative of Travels in Manchuria, Across the Gobi Desert, Through the Himalayas to India Continent, ' I endeavoured to give as many of the geographical details I had observed as seemed to me would be of service to geographers and future travellers. In the present I have felt myself at liberty to dis card such dry matter and retain only what has some small chance of interesting an over burdened public. Travellers are not less vain than the rest of mankind - probably more so - and I like to delude myself with the hope that some of my experiences, some account of those remote haunts of nature which I Visited as well as of the child - races and historical people whom I met may still be of interest to my countrymen at home. My sincerest wish at any rate is that I may be able to communicate to them even a spark of that keen pleasure and enthusiasm which exploration so amply affords.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
