  • - Viceroy of Liang Kuang 1852-8
    by J. Y. (University of Sydney) Wong
    £33.99

    The western reader is here presented with a biography of a major figure on the Chinese side in the crucial period of China's political contact with the western world, which describes a man of his own time and country, with his own background of education, endeavour and achievement and not merely a figure symbolic of Chinese obstruction of British purposes as he was seen from London or Hong Kong.

  • - Opium and the Arrow War (1856-1860) in China
    by J. Y. (University of Sydney) Wong
    £36.49 - 114.99

    Wong reveals the extent of Britain's reliance on the opium and tea trade with China, and argues that Victorian free trade ideology was a less decisive factor in the Arrow War (1856-60) than was Britain's economic struggle to support a vast colonial enterprise.
