China and the Missions at Amoy: With Notice of the Opium Trade is a book written by George Freeland Barbour in 1855. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the relationship between China and the Western world, particularly in the port city of Amoy. It discusses the history of Christian missions in the region and the challenges they faced in converting the local population to Christianity. The book also sheds light on the controversial opium trade that was prevalent in China during that time. Barbour discusses the impact of opium on Chinese society and the efforts made by the Chinese government to curb its use. Overall, China and the Missions at Amoy: With Notice of the Opium Trade provides a unique perspective on the cultural and political dynamics of China in the mid-19th century. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of China and its interactions with the Western world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
