Excerpt from Massacres of Christians by Heathen Chinese Horrors of the Boxers The Boxers' outbreak does not, to the wisest and best informed men, appear to mean the dismemberment of China; rather it is but one of the unmistakable signs Of the time that the long age of sleep and of isolation from the outside world, is ended. The Yellow Man is to come into direct contact with the White Man and the fitter will survive. Which will survive?

Excerpt from The Oldest and the Newest Empire: China and the United States The Chinese are a heathen people, and much that is evil can truthfully be said against them. But why do we judge them so much more severely than other heathen empires which have not excelled or equaled them in morality? The Romans were a far more depraved and cruel people than the Chinese. Their idolatry was more gross and loathsome. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Divine Authority of the Old and New Testament Asserted Pretenfion to this Charaéter. I would be one Of the lafl to charge any Man with a Want of Honefiy and Sincerity: but there are ma ny Things in his Book that look like a wilful Perverfion and Mifreprefentation of Faéts, as well as Arguments and fometimes fo circum fianced, that it is fcarce pofiible for the molt extenfive Charity to fuppofe that it'was owing to mere Ignorance. Perhaps the Author him felf would not be willing to accept of this A pology. I cannot help looking upon it as an Honour to Chrifiianity, that its Adveifaries find themfelves obliged to take fuch Methods as thefe, in order to carry on their Defigns a gainft it. Does not this argue a fecret Con fcioufnefs that they can never prevail by a fair Attack upon the Scriptures For furely he muf't be either very wicked or very foolilh, that would have recourfe to fuch bafe Arts as thefe to ferve his Caufe, if he thought his End could be anfwered without it, and that fair and juft Reafoning, and an equal candid Ma nagement would do as well.

Excerpt from Stories of Everyday Life in Modern China On the other hand, the character and experiences of Mr. Yang in Heathen and Christian are per haps more frequent among the Chinese than foreigners imagine. The native helper or evangelist in this story was a man well known to many Europeans. He was quiet and unassuming, of perfect faith and great zeal, but without much knowledge or experience.

Excerpt from Bret Harte: Representative Selections, With Introduction, Bibliography, and Notes Bret Harte is too Often remembered only as the author Of The Luck of Roaring Camp, The Outcasts of Poker Flat, and The 'heathen Chinee. This volume may help to correct such a misapprehension of the man who, in addition to being a major initiator of the local-color movement in American litera ture, was a poet of some importance, who continued until the beginning of our century to write stories many Of which deserve a rating close to that of his earlier successes, who was one Of the best or perhaps the very best Of all American parodists, and who made a significant contribution to American literary, criticism. The selections are designed to illustrate this variety in Harte's work, and the introduction has sought to emphasize both the variety and the unity which informs it.
