Orphan Warriors: Three Manchu Generations and the End of the Qing World

By the end of the Taiping War in 1864, however, the descendants of these conquering people were coming to terms with a loss of legal definition, an ever-steeper decline in living standards, and a sense of abandonment by the Qing court.

A Translucent Mirror: History and Identity in Qing Imperial Ideology
ISBN: 9780520234246 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 417 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych.
