The Foreigner in Far Cathay is a book written by Walter Henry Medhurst and published in 1873. The book is a memoir of the author's experiences as a Christian missionary in China during the mid-19th century. Medhurst describes his travels and encounters with the local people, as well as his efforts to spread Christianity in a country that was largely unfamiliar with the religion. The book also provides a detailed account of the culture, customs, and traditions of China during this time period, as well as the political and social climate of the country. Medhurst's writing is both informative and engaging, offering readers a unique perspective on China during a pivotal period in its history. Overall, The Foreigner in Far Cathay is a fascinating read for anyone interested in Chinese history, religion, or culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
