Sir Harry Parkes In China is a book written by Stanley Lane-Poole that tells the story of Sir Harry Parkes, a British diplomat who played a significant role in the relationship between China and the Western powers during the 19th century. The book provides a detailed account of Parkes' life, including his early years in England, his diplomatic career in China, and his contributions to the development of British trade and influence in the region. It also covers some of the key events in China's history during Parkes' time, such as the Opium Wars and the Taiping Rebellion. The book is a fascinating exploration of the life and legacy of a remarkable figure in Chinese history, and offers valuable insights into the complex relationship between China and the West during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
