TAILIEUCHUNG - THE CIVILIZATION OF CHINA

Taken in its widest sense, the term includes Mongolia, Manchuria, Eastern Turkestan, Tibet, and the Eighteen Provinces, the whole being equivalent to an area of some five million square miles, that is, considerably more than twice the size of the United States of America. But for a study of manners and customs and modes of thought of the Chinese people, we must confine ourselves. | The Civilization of China 1 The Civilization of China The Project Gutenberg Etext The Civilization of China by Giles Copyright laws are changing all over the world be sure to check the copyright laws for your country before posting these files Please take a look at the important information in this header.
