Thomson's China: Travels and Adventures of a Nineteenth-Century Photographer

by John Thomson

A written account of John Thomson's experiences and impressions of nineteenth-century China, Thomson's China is a unique photographic experience. Thomson stands apart from other explorers of the time in that he took a camera with him when he traveled, and he was the first to set out with the goal of documenting the country and its people.
