Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, set against the backdrop of the Taiping Rebellion and other conflicts of the era, delves into the role of the French at the port city of Shanghai during 1853-1855.

As imperial forces arrive to quell the rebellion, the author details the tense negotiations and strategic maneuvers undertaken by the French consul to maintain neutrality and protect French interests.
