The Boxer Rebellion and The Great Game in China

Book •
David Silby's work examines the origins, development, and international context of the Boxer movement at the turn of the 20th century.

The book situates the uprising within the broader 'Great Game' of imperial powers vying for influence in China, analyzing political, social, and military factors.

Silby explores both local Chinese dynamics and foreign interventions that contributed to the crisis.

The narrative focuses on how competing imperial ambitions, missionary activity, and internal Chinese weaknesses converged to produce violent anti-foreign unrest.

It is used as a scholarly source for understanding the complexities and international dimensions of the Boxer Rebellion.
