| Description: |
China's capital has always been viewed as one of the world's most mysterious cities. It was forbidden for hundred of years to Westerner, but its role as the centre of the world's greatest empire has made it the focus of enormous curiosity since the days of Marco Polo. |
| Synopsis: |
This book recreates a sense of old Peking through a pastiche of historical snippets. It tells of when Peking was a flashpoint of confrontation between very different yet equally headstrong cultures. |
