The author, a translator for the British mercantile community in Canton, provides an invaluable glimpse into the complexities of the Chinese commercial landscape, a world transformed…by the Opium Wars and the ensuing treaties.

Detailed descriptions of Chinese weights, measures, and currency are presented, providing a window into the economic realities of the time.
