"They Fired Rifles at Her!" Our Lady's Apparition in China

This is the story of a fanatical rebellion in China and how a group of faithful Catholics defended a Cathedral in Peking during a two month siege. It is the historical account of how a heavenly army defended Beitang cathedral in 1900 and is one of the few documented apparitions of Our Lady in China.

Note from the book: “In China the power of the devil is manifested visibly by the number of persons who are possessed of evil spirits. We often hear Satan speaking by the mouths of possessed people. A holy Missionary, who has been here for 22 years, told me that he heard him declaring through a woman who was possessed that China was his chosen Empire, and that there was not a single spot of this country where he was not worshiped!” They were told (also by the devil) not to build any buildings higher than 99 feet high.
