Chinese Mettle is a book written by Emily Georgiana Kemp and published in 1921. The book is a memoir of Kemp's experiences living in China during the early 20th century. Kemp was a British woman who traveled to China as a missionary, and her book provides a unique perspective on Chinese culture and society during a time of significant change. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Kemp's life in China, including her work as a missionary, her experiences with Chinese customs and traditions, and her observations on the political and social climate of the country. Kemp writes with a candid and often humorous tone, sharing personal anecdotes and insights into the challenges and rewards of living in a foreign land. Chinese Mettle is a valuable historical document that provides a glimpse into a fascinating period in Chinese history. It offers readers a firsthand account of life in China during a time of rapid modernization and cultural transformation, as well as a unique perspective on the role of Western missionaries in shaping Chinese society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
