Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origins, events, and global impact of China's Boxer Rebellion and the devastating consequences that followed for the nation. The author, with years of experience in China, analyzes the uprising within a historical context, exploring the major themes, causes, and implications of the conflict. The work highlights the deep-rooted anti-foreign sentiment in China, fueled by the political exploitation of 19th-century social unrest, superstition, and foreign encroachment on Chinese sovereignty. The author delves into the complex roles of secret societies, imperial politics, and global pressure, painting a clear picture of the catalysts that ignited the Boxer movement.
