The Pagoda (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Pagoda

It was no easy task to gather together the material out of which the following little sketch has been constructed. Very many au thors refer to the Pagoda and speak of its architectural and artistic magnificence, but few, if mun - certainly not one whom I could find, - tell us. With any degree of precision, what Pagodas reallv are. Why they were originally built, or to what uses they were subsequentlv applied. Brother Beck. S. J and his asso ciates in the Chinese Orphanage at Zi-ka-wei are, therefore. The pioneers in this particular field of archeological research. To him and to them I am indebted for whatever of scientific value this sketch may possess.
