The first two parts of this book concern the land and people of China--workmen, scholars, women, farmers, Chinese traditions, and religious beliefs. The final part explores the situation of lepers in China, including a look at "what China does for them," the course of the disease, etc. In the 1920s, the author reports, China was home to "about one-half of all the lepers in the world.".
