Also known by the Chinese name 'Lin-Le' (呤唎), Lindley's life and work combined elements of travel, exploration, and literary documentation.\n\nThough his career was brief, ending with his death at the age of thirty-three, Lindley is remembered for his historical role as a Victorian-era traveler who recorded his experiences abroad.
