Zusammenfassung: | "The Arrow War (1856-60) was a virtual world war, involving all the major powers of the globe - China, Britain, France, the United States, and Russia - except the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Of course this conflict was not, as hitherto assumed, merely a simple, diplomatic squabble begun over the alleged insult to the British flag ascribed to the Arrow, a sailing vessel registered in Hong Kong. Over the past thirty years Dr. John Wong has been digging deeply into the pertinent archives around the world to discover the true causes of the war. In Deadly Dreams, he identifies the origins of the war and analyzes the intricate, competing interests and passions - economic realities, personal vanity, national pride, drugs, lies, scandals, conspiracies, intrigues, and stratagems - that fueled the conflict."--BOOK JACKET. |
