The Boxer Rebellion and the Great Game in China
David J. Silbey
The year is 1900, and in China a group of superstitious peasants is launching attacks on the Western powers. These ordinary Chinese are called Boxers. Many scholars brush off the Boxer Rebellion as an ill-conceived and easily defeated revolt. This book shows just how close the Boxers came to beating back the combined might of the imperial powers.
