This unique and compelling analysis of Manchuria's environmental history demonstrates how the region's geography has shaped China's past. Since the 17th century, the call of the Manchurian wilderness, with its abundant wildlife, timber and mining deposits, has led several empires to do battle for its riches. Chinese, Japanese, Manchu, Russian and other imperial forces have defied unrelenting summers and unforgiving winters as they fought for sovereignty over this vast 'frontier'.0Going beyond the traditional focus on rivalries between Manchuria's colonizing forces, the volume examines the interplay of climate and competing imperial interests in the region's vibrant - and violent - cultural narrative. Families that settled this borderland reaped its riches while at the mercy of an unforgiving and hotly contested landscape.0The volume also explores the role of Manchuria in China's social and political evolution, offering an understanding of how the geopolitical future of this global economic power is rooted in its past.

Manchuria entered the twentieth century as a neglected backwater of the dying Qing dynasty, and within a few short years became the focus of intense international rivalry to control its resources and shape its people. This book examines the place of religion in the development of Manchuria from the late nineteenth century to the collapse of the Japanese Empire in 1945. Religion was at the forefront in this period of intense competition, not just between armies but also among different models of legal, commercial, social and spiritual development, each of which imagining a very specific role for religion in the new society. Debates over religion in Manchuria extended far beyond the region, and shaped the personality of religion that we see today. This book is an ambitious contribution to the field of Asian history and to the understanding of the global meaning and practice of the role of religion.
