Orphan Warriors: Three Manchu Generations and the End of the Qing World
Pamela Kyle Crossley
Focusing on three generations of a Manchu family (from 1750 to the 1930s), this book is an attempt to understand the social and cultural life of the bannermen within the context of the decay of the Qing regime. It reveals that the Manchus were growing in consciousness of their ethnicity in response to changes in their own position.
