by John M Carroll, John M. Carroll, John Mark Carroll

This fascinating history explores the wide range of views of Britons in late-imperial China as they chafed under the restrictions imposed by the Canton System. John M. Carroll brings a seminal period in the Anglo-Chinese relationship, which revolved around tea and opium, to life through the words of those who experienced it intimately.
