# Sir Edmund Backhouse, 2nd Baronet

> Sir Edmund Trelawny Backhouse, 2nd Baronet was a British oriental scholar, Sinologist, and linguist whose books exerted a powerful influence on the Western view of the last decades of the Qing dynasty (1644-1912). Since his death, however, it has been established that the major source of his China Under the Empress Dowager, Diary of His Excellency Ching Shan, is a forgery, most likely by Backhouse himself.

*Quaker, sinologist (1873-1944)*
