From her seat on the Dragon throne she commanded an Empire. The decisions she made still leave their mark on the world. Few women in history have held as much power. Yet the days w ere never long enough for all she wanted to do. Mrs. Jernigan tells the strange story of Tsu Hsi's love for her Prime Minister, which defied tradition, with smooth-paced narrative power, in an absorbing novel, full of pageantry and turbulence. FORBIDDEN CITY is a vivid portrait of one of the least-known but one of the most remarkable figures of history. This 1954 Invincible Press Hardback is in good condition. DJ; Price clipped.
