Thank you for the link! I wonder how you found it? Very interesting book, I heard about the book but I never had the chance to found it. Now, I have to learn French... :lol:
Too good we have online translators. Very useful information and good illustrations.

I found it by accident. I was looking for a Shanghai dialect dictionary and discovered this digital library:

There are lots of cool old (and not so old as well) books there on China and related topics.
Very interesting stuff. Check it.
Not only French. :wink:

Stephen has translated this into English in Chinese Archery.
