"History is inexorable. Needless to say Chinese history is the same. Liu Jing has continued to make this relentless process into an accessible, brilliantly illustrated work that provides us with a view to the turmoil of the latter part of Chinese history -- the Ming and Qing dynasties of China. As the fourth volume of his illustrated histories of China, we come to understand how modern China came to be. It is a history of the tug-of-wars of many players and is not to be missed."
-- David M Jacobson, historian, quarter-century resident of China, foreign expert for the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and Northeast Normal University, and co-founder of SinoFile Information Services, Ltd.
