About This Novel

This book explores the global maritime trade from the 16th to the early 20th centuries from several aspects such as the life experience of local people, social transformation in South China, educational opportunities and personal promotion, modern newspapers and political opinion, and the business network and living patterns of Xiangshan people. Macao, which plays a pivotal role in the trade system, plays a demonstration role and radiating effect on surrounding areas and China as a whole. Based on Macao's historical experience, it attempts to provide a long-term and structural explanation for the great changes that occurred in China at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
