具体描述
This is the story of a failed attempt by the British, in 1793, to open the Chinese Empire to Western trade. Led by Lord Macartney, whose distinguished diplomatic posts included India and the Caribbean, the enormous British expedition of nearly 700 men included doctors, scholars, painters, musicians, soldiers and young aristocrats, and lasted more than two years, and its success would have redefined the history of the 19th and 20th centuries. The author has made use of a variety of sources, including, on the British side, the diary of the 12-year-old Thomas Stanton, son of Macartney's deputy, who was the only person in the whole English fleet who spoke Chinese, and, on the Chinese side, the newly discovered secret reports of the Emperor's officials, all annotated by the Emperor himself.

评分终于看完了这本500页厚的书，这是我早就关注的书了，但说实话，通读完并没给我所想象的震撼，现在毕竟不同于几十年前。但是的确它提供了一个外国人看中国的独特视角。 这本书最大的特点就是对资料的占有，作者通过使团的文件和日记，传教士的通信以及连一般中国人都不得...
