Traps for Troubadours

In 1792 an important embassy sets sail from England in an attempt to open up trade with the vast Chinese empire of Qianlong. But what threat does it pose to the long-established hegemony of the Qing Dynasty?
There are those who don’t want the embassy to succeed.
The voyage is also a rite of passage for young George Thomas Staunton, the 12-year old son of the ambassador’s deputy. His discoveries are ours; his thirst for knowledge produces unusual dividends when the embassy finally reaches Peking.
