The Golden Peaches of Samarkand: A Study of T'ang Exotics

In the seventh century the kingdom of Samarkand sent formal gifts of fancy yellow peaches, large as goose eggs and with a color like gold, to the Chinese court at Ch'ang-an. This book examines these exotics imported into China during the T'ang Dynasty and depicts their influence on Chinese life.
