Description

First edition in English and a scarce work on piracy in China, extracted complete from Neumann's 'Translations from the Chinese and Armenian' which contained other works not related to piracy. With a leaf of Chinese calligraphy as frontispiece, pronunciation marks and symbols throughout. 8vo, bound in later red cloth, the spine lettered and ruled in gilt. xlvii, 128 pp. A very well preserved copy, the text-block in fine condition, the binding with a little bit of age-wear, the front inner hinge slightly open though still holding firmly.
