Twilight in the Forbidden City - Cambridge Library Collection - East and South-East Asian History
Reginald F. Johnston
This work is the record of Johnston's time spent in Beijing between 1919 and 1924, where he served as tutor to Aisin-Gioro Puyi, the last emperor of China. As a foreigner, Johnston had unprecedented access to the imperial palace. He provides a unique Western perspective on this tumultuous period.
