"This book covers the gunboats of all the major nations that stationed naval forces in China, including the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan, and looks at such famous incidents as the Japanese bombing of the USS Panay and the dramatic escape of the HMS Amethyst from Communist forces in 1949, which marked the end of the gunboat era."--P. [4] of cover.
