Book Description
Excerpt from Illustrations of China and Its People, Vol. 2 of 4: A Series of Two Hundred Photographs, With Letterpress Descriptive of the Places and People RepresentedHE bamboo is one of the most serviceable plants of Southern China, for which reason I have assigned it an important place in this work.
