具体描述
This is the story of a failed attempt by the British, in 1793, to open the Chinese Empire to Western trade. Led by Lord Macartney, whose distinguished diplomatic posts included India and the Caribbean, the enormous British expedition of nearly 700 men included doctors, scholars, painters, musicians, soldiers and young aristocrats, and lasted more than two years, and its success would have redefined the history of the 19th and 20th centuries. The author has made use of a variety of sources, including, on the British side, the diary of the 12-year-old Thomas Stanton, son of Macartney's deputy, who was the only person in the whole English fleet who spoke Chinese, and, on the Chinese side, the newly discovered secret reports of the Emperor's officials, all annotated by the Emperor himself.

评分还有两本书是，一本是怀柔远人．还有一本就是马回忆录本身 佩雷菲特不是专业的历史学者，此书突出的其实是中国历史的停滞，认为中国自古以来其实没有什么发展变化，历史循环而已．并且结合毛时代的中国来说明中国历史的停滞性，所以魏菲德评价这本书说政治意味太浓，以至影响...
