Condition of the collectable hardback book. Does not have a dust jacket. Photo of actual book attached. It has aging signs but a very firm clean book. Many photos attached. the spine top has been slightly damaged. "Roving Through Southern China" is an evocative travel memoir that provides an immersive and detailed portrait of life in Southern China during the mid-1920s. Written by the celebrated travel author Harry Alverson Franck, this work offers a firsthand account of a region experiencing significant social and political transformation. Franck's narrative leads readers across bustling urban centers and remote rural villages, meticulously documenting the customs, traditions, and daily struggles of the Chinese people with a keen and observant eye. The work serves as a valuable historical record, capturing the intersection of ancient traditions and the encroaching forces of modernization. Through his journeys, Franck explores a wide range of subjects, from the complexities of local governance and economic conditions to the vibrant religious and cultural practices of the era. "Roving Through Southern China" remains an essential text for readers interested in Asian history, historical geography, and classic travel literature, offering a unique window into the landscapes and societies of East Asia during a pivotal decade in the early 20th century. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact. 649pp The book is quite heavy and could incur extra postage than quoted.
