Taiping Rebellion [Pehme köide]

Written by one of Japan' most popular modern authors, this is a lively, readable, and immensely entertaining fictional portrayal of one of the epochal events of the nineteenth century.

This volume portrays one of the most compelling stories of the 19th century, when a quasi-religious and social movement lost 100,000 warriors in an attempt to overthrow the Qing dynasty and left 20 million dead in their wake.
