By Jeff Rich| Burning Archive@ An echo of the Opium Wars in nineteenth century China sounds today when the USA starts a trade war with the world by blaming China for its fentanyl crisis. But the real history of the Opium Wars is more tragic still. No one really wanted war; but war was what they got. Welcome to the second week of my World History Tour of China.
