Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a detailed look into 500 documents, spanning the period from when China opened its first post office in Shanghai in 1866, to 1911, on the eve of the Republican Revolution that would bring down the Qing Dynasty. These documents include a wide range of materials, including Chinese official documents, I.P.O. circulars, protocols, forms and regulations, translated into English for the first time. The documents have been meticulously compiled and organized in chronological order to give a clear picture of the emergence and development of the Chinese postal system as well as the challenges faced and methods deployed to overcome them. The detailed insights provided by these materials trace the evolution of the Chinese Postal Service and give scholars and historians the opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of postal practice and development during the late Qing period.
