DESCRIPTION:

This book traces significant points in the history of Western exploration in and trade with China. It also touches on many other highlights, including explorations by the Russian Nikolay Przevalsky, who traveled deep into China and today is largely remembered for the horse he discovered and identified there; the travels of 19th-century women explorers in China; Amercian Roy Chapman Andrews, discovery of the first fossilized dinosaur eggs in the Gobi Desert; and the competition between two American explorers to be the first to capture a live giant panda.

Apart from giving some basic facts about China, the book also casts some insight into the historical and economic development of China, especially the period over the past five decades. In doing so, it helps give an understanding of the way Chinese think and do business, so that Westerners can be better prepared for their role as they engage in trade with China .

The author, Foster Stockwell, an American writer and publisher, spent his childhood in China as the son of Protestant missionaries in the 1930s and 40s.
