Book Description

Excerpt from My Lady of the Chinese Courtyard A writer on things Chinese was asked why one found so little writing upon the subject of the women of China. He stopped, looked puzzled for a moment, then said, The women of China! One never hears about them. I believe no one ever thinks about them, except perhaps that they are the mothers of the Chinese men! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
