THE RIVER AT THE CENTRE OF THE WORLD A Journey Up the Yangtze and Back in Chinese Time by Simon Winchester

A hard to find China travelogue, looks like a great read. This is a used travel book in average condition: has been read a few times; pages are browning with age; creased corners; a bit rough but perfectly readable, scarce and cheap. See photos for cover blurb and sample page(s). The book in the photos is the actual book you will receive - we never use stock pictures - enjoy!

Publisher's blurb: Simon Winchester undertakes a journey from the mouth of the Yangste River to its source. This is the story of the river, it's cities and their people, built around the author's own journey to discover something of the essence of China and her people, the Yangtse being her soul and center.
