China had been opened at gunpoint and was being explained to Europe by the people who did the opening. Plauchut writes the empire at close range: the officials, the trades, the customs and the quarrels of a civilisation that had been running for millennia and was not remotely impressed by its visitors, whatever the treaty ports believed.
