Native Sailing Boat. Transport. A Chinese Pirate Junk. Pirates. Qing Dynasty. Costumes. Fan. / The coast of China and especially the southern part is infested with a race of sea-robbers or pirates. In their swift and capacious junks with all signs of their dangerous character hidden, they hug the shore, making signs of amity to passing vessels, and woe betide the unwary captain who accepts their friendly overtures and permits their near approach. Certain destruction is the penalty for such carelessness.Publisher: Raphael Tuck & Sons Oilette Wide Wide World Life in China
