Charles Cabry Dix

Sinopse

In "The World's Navies in the Boxer Rebellion (China 1900)," Charles Cabry Dix provides a meticulous examination of naval operations during one of the most tumultuous periods in modern Chinese history. Employing a blend of vivid narrative and precise historical analysis, Dix contextualizes the role of various international naval forces in the suppression of the Boxer Rebellion. His literary style adeptly balances scholarly rigor with accessible prose, illuminating the intricacies of maritime strategies and international diplomacy of the late 19th century while analyzing the geopolitical implications of foreign interventions in China. Charles Cabry Dix, a historian with a deep-seated expertise in naval warfare and Asian history, draws upon extensive archival research and firsthand accounts to inform his work. His fascination with naval dynamics and colonial history, particularly the interactions between Western powers and China, shaped his approach to this complex event. Dix'Äôs background enables him to craft a narrative that is both informative and compelling, highlighting the often-overlooked maritime dimensions of the Boxer Rebellion. This book is a vital resource for students, historians, and military enthusiasts alike. It not only enriches our understanding of the Boxer Rebellion but also prompts reflection on the lasting impacts of imperialism and global military interactions. Readers will find in Dix'Äôs work a nuanced and illuminating perspective on naval history that is as relevant today as it was over a century ago.

The root of all suffering is attachment and desire 
Buddha 
Buddha said that “the root of suffering is attachment and desire.” But what does attachment and desire exactly mean? It's basically what we do when we hold on to things in an effort to find happiness and comfort. We don't just cling to things that give us joy, but we also cling to something because we're afraid to let go of them as well.
