Excerpt from Burma, After the Conquest: Viewed in Its Political, Social, and Commercial Aspects, From Mandalay<br><br>Capital the anglo-burman praying for annexa tion, as the greatest boon Heaven could give to the two Burmas the Chinaman preferring. His claims to Bhamo, with its jewel mines, and its india-rubber trees; the French diplomat ist, disconcerted and soured by an unlooked-for humiliation - the fruit of his own miscalculations all these deserved to be photographed as they appeared during an important instant of time, which can never be recalled. The camera may not have worked without blurs but the object of the photographer was to get an exact record of things as they were. NO attempt has been made to alter their aspect, or to Shade or brighten the picture in accordance with any preconceived view.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
