The Taiping Rebellion was a widespread civil war in southern China from 1850 to 1864, against the ruling Manchu-led Qing Dynasty. It was led by heterodox Christian convert Hong Xiuquan, who, having claimed to have received visions, maintained that he was the younger brother of Jesus Christ. About 20 million people died, mainly civilians, in one of the deadliest military conflicts in history Augustus Frederick Lindley (Lin-Le to his Taiping soldiers) was a Royal Navy officer who, along with his wife Mary, joined the 1860 Taiping reform movement in China. He trained Taiping soldiers using modern techniques, and Mary became a sniper. In 1863, Lindley returned to the UK. In 1866 he wrote and published this book (Ti Ping Tien Kwoh: OR The History of the Taiping Revolution, including a narrative of the author's personal adventures).

Discover the remarkable history of the Taiping Rebellion...In 1837, Hong Xiuquan failed the notoriously difficult exam to gain entry to the Chinese Civil Service and suffered a nervous breakdown. In a weakened state, he had visions which he later interpreted to be messages from God, telling him that he is the younger brother of Jesus Christ and, therefore, the second son of God. By 1850, Hong had built an army, challenged an empire, and plunged China into the bloodiest civil war in human history, one that lasted fourteen years and cost more lives than the First World War. This is the story of Hong Xiuquan's Taiping Rebellion, of his "Heavenly Kingdom," and the death and destruction that came with it. Discover a plethora of topics such as The Visions of Hong Xiuquan Fighting the Xiang Army Coups within the Taiping Kingdom The Reforms of the Shield King The Ever-Victorious Army The End of the Taiping Rebellion: Death by a Thousand Cuts And much more!

Li Hsiu-ch'eng - the Loyal Prince - was the most important military leader on the rebel side during the last years of the Taiping Rebellion in China (1851-64). The Taiping Rebellion has been called the greatest popular revolt in modern history, and it came remarkably close to toppling the Ch'ing empire some fifty years before it was finally overthrown in 1911. Captured in June 1864 by government forces, Li Hsiu-ch'eng spent the final days before his inevitable execution writing a personal account of the Rebellion and his role in it. His Deposition is the fullest narrative by a participant and an invaluable historical document. The original manuscript of the Deposition was withheld by the government commander Tseng Kuo-fan and his descendants, and a shortened, bowdlerized version prepared for publication. Li himself was considered a great revolutionary hero in China until the Cultural Revolution when he was reassessed in a major public debate of considerable political significance.

The Taiping Rebellion, alternatively termed the Taiping Civil War or the Taiping Revolution, unfolded in China pitting the Manchu Qing dynasty against the Han, Hakka-led Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Spanning from 1850 to 1864, its echoes reverberated beyond, with the final rebel faction quelled only in August 1871, post the fall of Tianjing. The uprising sparked subsequent revolts, notably the ephemeral Heavenly Kingdom of the Great Mingshun in 1903, directly influenced by the Taiping. Despite the victory of the established Qing regime, it came at a staggering cost, both financially and politically, navigating through one of history's deadliest civil conflicts, which claimed an estimated 20 to 30 million lives. At the helm of the rebellion stood Hong Xiuquan, an ethnic Hakka, who proclaimed himself the sibling of Jesus Christ. His ambitions were multifaceted, blending theological, nationalist, and political aspirations. Hong's vision extended beyond religious conversion; he aimed to dismantle the Manchu-led Qing Dynasty and engineer a radical overhaul of the nation's structure. Rather than merely targeting the ruling class, the Taipings sought to dismantle China's societal and ethical framework. Erecting the Heavenly Kingdom with Tianjing (now Nanjing) as its nucleus, they commanded sway over vast swathes of southern China, eventually encompassing a populace nearing 30 million.
