The Siege In Peking: China Against The World is a non-fiction book written by W. A. P. Martin, which provides a detailed account of the Boxer Rebellion that took place in China in 1900. The book describes the events leading up to the rebellion, the siege of the foreign legations in Peking, and the subsequent relief of the legations by an international force. Martin, who was a missionary and a scholar of Chinese culture, provides a unique perspective on the rebellion and its causes, as well as the cultural, political, and social context in which it occurred. The book also includes personal accounts of the siege and the relief efforts, as well as photographs and illustrations. Overall, The Siege In Peking is a comprehensive and informative account of a pivotal moment in China's history and its relations with the rest of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
