The Boxers As Event, Experience, and Myth
Paul A. Cohen
overview
Examines the craft of historiography against the backdrop of the Chinese Boxer Rebellion of 1898-1900. The text juxtaposes the account of historians with those of the participants and witnesses and sets these perspectives against the range of popular myths about the Boxers.
