Entitled: "Junk flotilla on the Peiho River - transporting U.S. Army stores from Tientsin to Peking, China." The Boxer Rebellion was lead by a Chinese secret organization called the Society of the Righteous and Harmonious Fists against the spread of Western and Japanese influence there. After several months of growing violence against the foreign and Christian presence in Shandong and the North China plain, in June 1900 Boxer fighters, convinced they were invulnerable to foreign weapons, converged on Peking (Beijing), China's capital, until an international force that included American troops subdued the uprising. Cropped stereograph card, Underwood & Underwood, 1900.
