Book excerpt: The present book was written for two classes of Chinese. To those who are studying English, it is not so much an attempt to teach Chinese history by English as English through the medium of Chinese history. Certainly it will prove doubly interesting to read the facts of the history of one's own country in a foreign tongue which he is making an effort to learn. To those to whom Chinese history must otherwise remain unknown, it is hoped that the "Outlines" may induce them to seek further knowledge from the original sources. The recent events which are introducing a new epoch in China make a study of our ancient institutions doubly necessary. -- Preface.
