Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Open-access edition: DOI 10.6069/9780295804811This historical investigation describes the Qing imperial authorities' attempts to consolidate control over the Zhongjia, a non-Han population, in eighteenth-century Guizhou, a poor, remote, and environmentally harsh province in Southwest China.
