The New Far East is a book written by Arthur Diosy and first published in 1904. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the political, economic, social, and cultural conditions in the Far East at the turn of the 20th century. Diosy, a journalist and traveler, draws on his extensive experience and observations to offer insights into the region’s history, geography, and people.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a specific country or region in the Far East, including China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines. Diosy discusses the political systems, economic development, social customs, and religious beliefs of each country, as well as their interactions with Western powers.One of the key themes of the book is the impact of Western imperialism on the Far East. Diosy examines the ways in which Western powers, particularly Britain and the United States, exerted their influence over the region through trade, diplomacy, and military force. He also analyzes the responses of the Far Eastern countries to this influence, including the adoption of Western technologies and ideas, as well as resistance and rebellion against Western domination.Overall, The New Far East is a valuable historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the complex and dynamic world of the Far East in the early 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history, culture, and politics of this important region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
