America Through The Spectacles Of An Oriental Diplomat

By Wu Tingfang and Tingfang Wu

Book Overview

""America Through The Spectacles Of An Oriental Diplomat"" is a book written by Tingfang Wu, a Chinese diplomat who visited the United States in the early 20th century. The book provides a unique perspective on American culture, politics, and society, as seen through the eyes of an outsider. Tingfang Wu's observations cover a wide range of topics, including the American legal system, education, religion, and social customs. He also comments on the differences between Chinese and American cultures, and offers insights into the challenges facing both countries in the years ahead. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in the history of US-China relations, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the complex relationship between these two nations.America has performed great service for the Orient and especially for China. If, however, the people of the latter country were asked to express their candid opinion on the matter, the verdict would not be altogether pleasant, but would be given with mixed feelings of gratitude and regret.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
