Hankow: Conflict and Community in a Chinese City, 1796-1895

William T. Rowe

This is the second volume of a two-volume social history of Hankow. The first volume, Hankow: Commerce and Society in a Chinese City, 1796-1889, emphasizes the dynamism of late imperial commerce, relations to the hinterland, and corporate institutions. Here, the focus is on the people of Hankow, in all their ethnic diversity, occupational variety, constant mobility, and social bonds.
