In 1895, British Consul Lionel Charles Hopkins was summoned by the governor of Taiwan, to his yamen in Taipei and was handed a petition appealing to the British government to incorporate the island into a protectorate in the wake of impending Japanese invasion. The British declined. This book investigates this pivotal moment in Taiwan's history.
