In A Mule Litter To The Tomb Of Confucius is a travelogue written by Alexander Armstrong, a British journalist who visited China in the early 20th century. The book documents his journey from Shanghai to the ancient city of Qufu, where he visited the tomb of Confucius, the great Chinese philosopher and teacher.Armstrong's account is a fascinating insight into China during a time of great change, as the country was transitioning from a traditional imperial society to a more modern, westernized one. He describes the people he meets along the way, the customs and traditions he observes, and the stunning landscapes he travels through.The journey to the tomb of Confucius is particularly memorable, as Armstrong and his companions travel by mule litter, a traditional mode of transport in China. Along the way, they encounter various challenges, including difficult terrain, extreme weather, and encounters with bandits.Throughout the book, Armstrong provides a thoughtful commentary on the cultural differences between China and the West, and reflects on the significance of Confucius and his teachings. The result is a captivating travelogue that offers a unique perspective on China and its history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
