Beyond the Book is the first ever book dedicated to the studies of rare East Asian materials collected by individuals and institutions in North America. Most of the materials discussed in this volume are in a non-book format. Beyond the Book not only reveals many interesting and forgotten stories in the two centuries of cultural exchanges between East Asia and North America, but also provides fresh clues for East Asian studies scholars in their hunting for raw research materials.
