2.	North China Herald (1850-1940)
	The English North China Herald is universally acclaimed as the prime print source in any language for the history of the foreign presence in China from around 1850 to the 1940s.  During this so-called 'treaty century' (1842-1943) the Great Western Powers established a strong presence in China through their protected enclaves in the major cities.
	It was published in Shanghai, at a time when Shanghai was at the heart of China's dealings with the Euro-American world and was a city at the forefront of developments in Chinese politics, culture, education and the economy.  As the official journal for British consular notifications, and announcements of the Shanghai Municipal Council, it is the first – and sometimes only – point of reference for information and comment on a range of foreign and Chinese activities.
