In 1919-20, Maugham journeyed up the Yangtze River, making detailed notes as he went.  Those notes formed the basis for the fifty-eight short sketches included in this volume, each of which is a finely chiseled gem of observation and character.  Some are humorous, some poignant, some scathing, but all contain the warm humanistic genius of Maugham.
