A historically significant collection of statistics and other information about Imperial China during the end of the Qing Dynasty. This book was published during the time of the consequential Wuchang Uprising that took place from October 10, 1911-December 1, 1911 and was the beginning of the 1911 Revolution (also known as the Xinhai Revolution or Hsinhai Revolution). The 1911 Revolution overthrew the Qing Dynasty and established the Republic of China (ROC), marking an end to over two millennia of imperial rule in China and the country's early republican years. The book, written from a Western perspective, notes that its publication was prompted by the tumultuous political situation in China. The book begins with a brief overview of the current uprisings in China with the latest one dated November 20, 1911. The book then proceeds to statistical matter relating to China at the time, beginning with English and Chinese calendars.
