A Little Tragedy At Tien-Tsin is a novel written by Frances Aymar Mathews. The story is set in Tien-Tsin, China, during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900. The protagonist of the story is a young American woman named Mary Hastings, who is living with her father in Tien-Tsin. Mary is engaged to a young American man named Tom, who is also living in Tien-Tsin. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Tom is also in love with Mary's best friend, a Chinese woman named Ming-Y. As the Boxer Rebellion intensifies, Mary and Tom become caught up in the violence and chaos of the conflict. They are forced to navigate a dangerous and uncertain landscape, as they struggle to protect themselves and their loved ones from harm. Meanwhile, Ming-Y becomes caught up in the rebellion as well, and she must make difficult choices about where her loyalties lie.Throughout the novel, Mathews explores themes of love, loyalty, and betrayal, as well as the complex cultural and political tensions that existed in China at the turn of the 20th century. The novel is a gripping and thought-provoking read, and it offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in Chinese history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
