In this collection of seven essays, Sino-American relations from 1841 through 1912 are examined by one of America's foremost authorities on the topic. Relying heavily on Chinese material and concentrating on the Chinese perspective, Professor Swisher introduces new material and analyzes selected aspects of these relations in detail.
