Excerpt from The Rationale of the China Question: Comprising an Inquiry Into the Repressive Policy of the Imperial Government
In short, the Treaty never was really acquiesced in there, either by the Gentry or the able-bodied of the people - neither of whom were forgetful of the sinister teachings of Lin, or the traditional inculcation of contempt, annually if not more frequently repeated publicly by their Rulers, and who had moreover the counterfeited semblance of victory to inflate their own pride.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book details the events that led to China's first and second opium wars, providing a colorful glimpse into the complex interplay between China and Western nations during this tumultuous period. The author, a keen observer, lived in China for years and was a personal correspondent to several foreign ministers, giving him a unique perspective on an era in which China's isolationist policies led to violent clashes with the West. Examining the diplomatic blunders, betrayals, and misunderstandings that marked these conflicts, the writer reveals the tension between China's traditional values and the encroaching West, and explains how this struggle laid the groundwork for many of the tensions still present in modern-day Sino-Western relations.
