Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forces Mining and Undermining China In writing this book I have tried to be fair, and, above all things, not to allow myself to be carried away by national or personal sentiment. At the same time, the writing of unbiassed history is rendered doubly difficult when that history is fizzling hot, just out of the oven, and when the chronicler is looking at the picture with his nose right up against the glass. Nevertheless, I believe this book to contain plain, unvarnished facts. Most of these facts are from my personal observation, but where this has not been possible I have quoted the observations of such reliable authorities as Mr. Thomas T. Read, Mr. Percy Kent, or the "Far Eastern Review." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
