China From Within: Or The Story Of The Chinese Crisis by Stanley Peregrine Smith is a book that provides a detailed account of the political, social, and economic conditions in China during the early 20th century. The author, who was a British journalist and diplomat, lived in China for over 20 years and had a deep understanding of the country's culture and history. The book covers the period from the Boxer Rebellion in 1900 to the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949.

He also offers insights into the mindset of the Chinese people and their attitudes towards foreigners.
