Description
This book tells of the little known ¡°Old Tea Road¡± between China and Russia via Mongolia. This commercial route that opened as a result of China¡¯s flourishing tea trade can be traced back to 450 years ago. It gives a vivid description of the rise and decline of this commercial road, changes in the surrounding cultural environment, and prospects for its revival in the era of China¡¯s reform and opening. It also details Sino-foreign relations on the Eurasian Continent in the fields of politics, economy and culture. With b&w photos. - from Amzon
