The Chinese Sultanate: Islam, Ethnicity, and the Panthay Rebellion in Southwest China, 1856-1873

David G. Atwill, Stanford University Press, 2005

David Atwill's academic history of the Panthay Rebellion and Du Wenxiu's Pingnan state in Yunnan province, the first English language monograph devoted to the episode, reading it through Yunnan's own multiethnic society rather than filtering it through the political and military lens of the Qing imperial center, based on Chinese, Yunnanese and Western archival sources.
