The Mandarin's Fan is a historical fiction novel written by Ferguson Wright Hume and published in 1904. The story is set in the late 19th century in China, during the Boxer Rebellion, a violent uprising against foreign influence and Christianity. The protagonist, Mr. Holman, is a British diplomat who is sent to China to investigate the murder of a British missionary. Along the way, he meets a cast of characters including a beautiful Chinese woman named Zouchee, a Russian spy, and a mysterious Mandarin who possesses a fan with a secret message. As Mr. Holman delves deeper into the investigation, he uncovers a web of intrigue and deception that threatens to destabilize the region. The Mandarin's Fan is a thrilling tale of espionage, romance, and political intrigue set against the backdrop of a tumultuous period in Chinese history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
