Barbara Lloyd takes us on a grand photo-journey through China and captures the landscape, the cityscape and the people of a country changing at an unprecedented rate. From the mouth of the Yangtze at Shanghai to one of its tiny tributary rivulets high on the Sichuan Plateau, Barbara Lloyd's poetic photographs of landscapes and cityscapes, monuments and ruins, together with a great diversity of people and costumes offer the reader a compelling and novel insight into this fascinating country. From the estuary of the Yellow River, where the ochre waters meet the China Sea, and from thence up to the border of Inner Mongolia in Ningxia Province, via the treasures of Xian, and the ruins of the Great Wall, the captivating photographs tell a story that is truly varied. Following the photographer's footsteps, the book is divided into 5 "itineraries" including Beijing, home of the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, Shanghai, the boom city on the banks of the Huang Ho River, the Yangtze River, Dali, Shangri-la, Sichuan, Leshan, and the Yellow River.
