Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive travelogue of a diplomatic mission from Great Britain to China in the 18th century, written by the ambassador himself, Lord Macartney. At the time, trade between the two nations was conducted entirely on Chinese soil, meaning that European traders were subject to the whims of Chinese policy. Macartney's embassy was the first official attempt by the British government to establish diplomatic relations with China, with the ultimate goal of securing more favorable trading conditions. Macartney's vivid account of his journey to Beijing and the court of the Qianlong Emperor provides a valuable historical record of this pivotal moment and illustrates the vast cultural differences between China and Europe at the time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781334334795_0
