![]() No Foreign Bones in China: Memoirs of Imperialism and Its Ending $24.11 No Foreign Bones In China: Memoirs Of Imperialism And Its Ending is a fascinating narrative of life in China as seen through the eyes of a British colonial family, the Shaws. This was a family who witnessed the Opium Wars, the Boxer Rebellion, two world wars, and the rise of Mao. Yet eventually in a fervent and chaotic climate of fanatical Chinese nationalism, the Shaws were expelled (as were so many other foreigners). This rejection by the Chinese authorities even extended to the bones of westerners in their graves. An eye-opening, personal, and memorable look at a great land and its people, No Foreign Bones In China is compelling, informative, and highly recommended reading for students of 20th Century Chinese history. |
