This is a particularly good title in a generally excellent series. My husband found it useful to provide background information for a course in Chinese calligraphy he was teaching (to adults).
The New York Times calls this series "a mini museum between the covers of a book." This particular title covers the history of the Chinese Empire and its culture.
