Ti-ping tien-kwoh : The History of the Ti-Ping Revolution, Including a Narrative of the Author's Personal Adventures

Omtale

This 1866 two-volume history of the Taiping Rebellion in China (1850–64) is both a defence of the rebels and a savage indictment of Britain's imperial policy and apathetic attitude to its consequences. It is an important and passionate account by a British soldier and participant.
