Desultory Notes on the Government and People of China, and on the Chinese Language: Illustrated with a Sketch of the Province of Kwang-Tung, Shewing its Division into Departments and Districts - Cambridge Library Collection - East and South-East Asian His

When he published this work in 1847, Thomas Taylor Meadows (1815–68) was the British consular interpreter at the key treaty port of Canton (Guangzhou). Including discussion of difficulties in learning Chinese, the work sheds valuable light on the bureaucracy, corruption and tension in southern China prior to the Taiping Rebellion.
