The Lion and the Dragon: Britain's Opium Wars with China 1839-1860
Mark Simner
During the middle of the 19th-Century, Britain and China would twice go to war over trade, and in particular the trade in opium. The Chinese people had progressively become addicted to the narcotic, a habit that British merchants were more than happy to feed from their opium-poppy fields in India.
