From the "Preface":
The following story of the Opium War is to all intents and purposes a translation of the last two chapters of the Sheng Wu-ki or " Military- Operations of the present Dynasty." The author is Wei Yuan, a Chinese who held, about forty years ago, the post of Department Magistrate at Kao-yu, north of Yangchow; andWei Yuan's style has been followed in the translation.
