During the Small Swords Society uprising, part of the Taiping Rebellion, Qing forces were beaten by a joint British-American force and local allies. The battle demonstrated foreign resolve to defend the concessions and marked the first time British and American forces fought alongside each other in a land battle. The original map is likely after a contemporary 1854 field sketch.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52705792000347,"sku":"P-6-111513","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-6-111513a.jpg?v=1775046216"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/collections\/shanghai-courier.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
