Synopsis

""The War In China"" is a historical account of the Chinese Expedition from its formation in April 1840 to the Treaty of Peace in August 1842. The book is authored by Duncan McPherson and was first published in 1843. The narrative details the events that led to the First Opium War, including the British trade of opium in China, which resulted in a ban by the Chinese government. The book also covers the military campaigns of the British forces, their victories, and defeats against the Chinese army. It also includes a detailed account of the Treaty of Nanjing, which ended the war and opened up several Chinese ports to foreign trade. The book provides a comprehensive understanding of the political and social conditions in China during the 19th century, as well as the impact of British imperialism on the country. Overall, ""The War In China"" is a valuable historical resource for those interested in the First Opium War and the relationship between China and the West during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
