Description
8vo, hardcover in dj, 494pp. Recreating the journey of Carl Mannerheim, a Finnish envoy sent by the last Russian tsar to study China in 1906, the author presents insights into modern China and examines the tensions between the Communist government's need for control and the Western ideals of democracy and personal freedom.
