Benjamin Couch "BC" Henry was a missionary in Hong Kong and southern China in the late 19th century. Yet he was also a keen observer, a skilled naturalist and an intrepid explorer. The bulk of his career was spent in what was then known as "Ling-nam", the Pearl River Delta and environs of Guangzhou (Canton). These excerpts of Henry's travelogue LING-NAM, published in 1886, contain one of the most detailed walking tours of Guangzhou that has survived.
