About this book
In the summer of 1900 bands of peasant youths from the villages of north China streamed into Beijing to besiege the foreign legations attracting the attention of the entire world. Joseph Esherick reconstructs the early history of the Boxers challenging the traditional view that they grew from earlier anti-dynastic sects and stressing instead the impact of social ecology and popular culture.
