From the publisher: 'I have found Van Slyke's Yangtze a really fascinating experience - the combination of his broad vision over time and space, of the geography of the river system with the technology of transport and the technique for producing major commodities, and his invocation of historical persons and events. It is a superb achievement to approach Chinese life and history through the vital medium of the river and all its aspects' - John King Fairbank, Harvard University., Very Good Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
