Forty Years in China
First Edition. A compelling autobiographical account from Meyrick Hewlett, offering a unique perspective on his 'Forty Years in China'. Published in 1944 by Macmillan and Co., Limited, this insightful memoir is enhanced by an introduction from Sir John Pratt. Hewlett's extensive experience as a British diplomat and colonial administrator provides a valuable firsthand look into Chinese history, culture, and Anglo-Chinese relations during the early to mid-20th century, particularly against the backdrop of a changing global landscape. Condition: Paperback in Good condition. The original wrappers show expected wear commensurate with age, including some rubbing to edges and spine, and mild toning to pages, but remain largely intact and presentable. The binding is secure, and the text block is clean and unmarked, making this a sound and complete copy of a significant historical memoir.
