Enhanced with rich imagery and additional historical notes, "Two Years in the Forbidden City" is a vivid trip into the grandeur and intrigue of China's last dynasty. * Featuring a new introduction, author biography and afterword by author/editor Noël Fletcher which provides context for this book in modern Chinese history. * Includes interesting historical details and photos about China's infamous Dowager Empress Tzu-hsi (Cixi), the Boxer Rebellion, the Imperial Court, and other people featured in the narrative. * Illustrated with 100+ historical photographs, illustrations, and paintings from the late 1800s to early 1900s.
