The British Arms in North China and Japan: Peking 1860, Kagosima 1862 (1864) is a historical account written by David Field Rennie. The book describes the British military campaigns in North China and Japan during the years 1860 and 1862. Specifically, the book focuses on the two significant battles that took place during this period: the Battle of Peking in 1860 and the Battle of Kagoshima in 1862. The Battle of Peking was fought during the Second Opium War, where British forces invaded Peking (now Beijing) and captured the city. The Battle of Kagoshima, on the other hand, was fought during the Anglo-Satsuma War, where British forces attacked the Japanese city of Kagoshima. Rennie provides a detailed account of the military tactics used by the British forces, as well as the political and historical context surrounding these conflicts. The book also includes illustrations and maps to help readers better understand the events described. Overall, The British Arms in North China and Japan is an informative and engaging read for anyone interested in military history or the history of British imperialism in Asia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
