- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A travel book by Andrews and his wife detailing their travels in China in search of specimens and photos for the natural history museum right before and during America’s entry into World War I. Most interesting when they are discussing village life and customs (although a lot might be considered racist now) and describing the country and scenery. The part that bothered me most (and I am not opposed to hunting) is that much of the book is simply about their killing stuff. I know that this was the purpose of the trip but when you go through page after page after page of shooting and trapping everything that moves, it ceases to be entertaining or interesting to the (this) reader.
