Excerpt from The Japanese Expedition to FormosaIr will be obvious that the following pages make no pretence to the ality of a historical record. They are chie¿y collected from memoranda of personal observation of the incidents described, and of authentic narratives of the diplomatic transactions between the governments of Japan and China. Their necessarily hasty preparation makes them incomplete in many particulars, and there are, indeed, reasons why a full and unabridged report of the events connected with Formosa might be inexpedient at this moment, but, within the limits prescribed for them, they are believed to represent the leading features of the subject with accuracy, and to be sup ported by sutficient evidence upon all points concerning which discussion may hereafter arise.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
