A Westerner?s Bicycle Tour in China, with a Crash Course in Chinese Culture and Society

China is a beautiful country with a fascinating culture and wonderful people. The best way to experience it all is by bicycle. This book is based on a bicycle tour that the author completed in the late spring of 2014. Rather than separate the notes on Chinese culture and society from the perspectives and events of the actual bike tour, the cultural and societal notes are naturally interspersed within the story of the actual bike tour, as they arise. The bicycle tour followed an eastern route, avoiding the heavily polluted coal areas. The book includes over 250 photographs and a wealth of practical information that should be useful for any Westerner planning to visit China, as well as for anyone planning a bicycle tour in any foreign country. It is also intended for readers who are simply looking to learn more about Chinese culture and society, from a Westerner's perspective.
