''The Siege of the Peking Legations: Being the Diary of the Rev. Roland Allen'' is a historical account of the Boxer Rebellion in China during the early 20th century. The book is written by Roland Allen, a British missionary who was present in Peking (now Beijing) during the siege of the foreign legations in 1900. Allen’s diary entries provide a firsthand account of the events that took place during the siege, including the daily struggles of those trapped inside the legations, the attacks by the Boxers and the Chinese army, and the eventual relief of the siege by foreign troops. The book also includes Allen’s reflections on his experiences and his thoughts on the role of Christianity in China. Overall, ''The Siege of the Peking Legations'' is a valuable historical document that provides insight into one of the most significant events in China’s modern history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
