''China V2: During The War And Since The Peace'' is a historical book written by John Francis Davis in 1852. The book provides a detailed account of the political and social situation in China during the Opium War and the subsequent peace negotiations. Davis, who served as the British Superintendent of Trade in China during this period, offers a unique perspective on the conflict and its aftermath. He provides insights into the Chinese government’s response to the British intervention, the role of the British East India Company in the opium trade, and the eventual signing of the Treaty of Nanking. The book also covers the impact of the war on Chinese society, including the rise of anti-foreign sentiment and the emergence of the Taiping Rebellion. Overall, ''China V2'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of China and its relationship with the West during the 19th century.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
