A Remarkable History of the Two-Centuries-Old Relationship Between the United States and China, from the Revolutionary War to the Present DayFrom the clipper ships that ventured to Canton hauling cargos of American ginseng to swap for Chinese tea, and the Yankee missionaries who brought Christianity and education to China, to the Chinese who built the American West, the United States and China have always been dramatically intertwined. While we tend to think of America's ties with China as starting in 1972 with the visit of President Richard Nixon to China, the patterns-rapturous enchantment followed by angry disillusionment-were set in motion hundreds of years earlier. A fascinating and thrilling account, The Beautiful Country and the Middle Kingdom is also an indispensable book for understanding the most important relationship between any two countries in the world. | The Beautiful Country and the Middle Kingdom by John Pomfret, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
