About This Novel

This book is an influential monograph by the late Mary Rui, a professor at Yale University in the United States. It describes in detail the various efforts and measures implemented by central and local officials of the late Qing government to "Tongzhi Zhongxing" (1862-1874) and save the corrupt Qing Dynasty, including military, political, economic, cultural, educational, and diplomatic aspects. It also explains the social and historical conditions on which "ZTE" is based, revealing the internal mechanism of ZTE's "almost success" and the reasons for its ultimate failure. Although his views are highly controversial, they are quite original.
