Synopsis
This is the first of two volumes in this major Cambridge history dealing with the decline of the Ch'ing empire. It opens with a survey of the Ch'ing empire in China and Inner Asia at its height, in about 1800. Contributors study the complex interplay of foreign invasion, domestic rebellion and Ch'ing decline and restoration. Special reference is made to the Peking administration, the Canton trade and the early treaty system, the Taiping, Nien and other rebellions, and the dynasty's survival in uneasy cooperation with the British, Russian, French, American and other invaders. Each chapter is written by a specialist from the international community of sinological scholars. No knowledge of Chinese is necessary; for readers with Chinese, proper names and terms are identified with their characters in the glossary, and full references to Chinese, Japanese and other works are given in the bibliographies. Numerous maps illustrate the text, and there are a bibliographical essays describing the source materials on which each author's account is based., This is the first of two volumes in this major Cambridge history dealing with the decline of the Ch'ing empire. Modern China's history begins with the processes recorded here of economic growth, social change and the deterioration of central government.

The book was in excellent condition, minus a small bend on back cover but not a big issue for me( not the sellers fault, USPS isn't very careful when handling packages ). Will for sure be doing business with them again. Pricing was fair considering this was an OOP cover.
