First edition 8vo pp. 321 1; frontispiece 66 illustrations from photographs; original pictorial yellow cloth stamped in red and blue on upper cover and spine; front hinge a little tender otherwise a very good bright copy. This copy with a presentation from Parsons: "Mrs. Thomas H. Baxter with the compliments of the author." Laid in is a two-page autograph letter signed from Parsons to Mrs. Baxter dated Feb. 7 1903 with the original mailing envelope which reads: "I have just obtained from the publishers a copy of my little book on China and take great pleasure in sending it to you . 'All the world's a stage' but the stage for the next world drama is I think the Orient and therefore it is interesting to study the players. At any rate this little book is a record of the most interesting experience that I ever expect to have." "Parsons . accepted the direction of a survey of some 1000 miles of railway in China primarily on the line from Hankow to Canton. The party passed through the then 'closed province' of Hu-nan and the success of the entire venture depended not alone on engineering skill but primarily upon the ability of the leader of the expedition to meet the extremely difficult diplomatic problems involved. Nevertheless the mission was accomplished and the small group of American engineers to the surprise of many of their friends returned in safety" DAB. That very same railroad line is still in use today. Parsons 1859-1932 founded Parsons Brinckerhoff Inc. one of the largest American civil engineering firms. He designed New York rapid transit subways the Cape Cod Canal and sat on the Isthmian Canal Commission. <br/><br/> McClure, Phillips & Co hardcover books
