China in Your Hands: Go Beneath the Surface & Travel like a Pro

Whenever I am going to a new place, I wish I had a friend, that knew everything that was to know about my destination. One who didn't find any questions stupid or strange, but answered with full confidence, wisdom and knowledge. Oh, that would save me so much time spent on unfruitful internet searches and too detailed guidebooks, and possibly money, embarrassment and unnecessary fear of the unknown.
This book is such a friend to anyone going to China. The four chapters cover Good Advice, Transportation, Sightseeing and Entertainment, with sub chapters on Chinese toilets, trains, restaurants, scams, money and how to become the most photographed person in the world's most populous country. China in Your Hand is not a guidebook, just 178 short pages of useful advice, tips and information, accumulated by 20 years of traveling all over China. I am your China friend!
You need knowledge, curiosity and a good dose of humor when going to China, and with this book at least the first part is taken care of. Happy reading and have a wonderful trip!
