I need the text 戊戌政變記 to cite some characteristic remarks about Cixi. Ctext has it here, but the OCR is horrible (of the order of one in three characters wrong). I went back to the plates and corrected many mistakes on selected pages, but they are very unclear and it is extremely time consuming to read them. Wikisource has a copy here, but most of the chapters are empty. Does anyone know a more trustworthy online source?
