Talking About Chinese History on the Banks of the Hudson River (hardcover Edition)
by Huang Renyu
About This Novel
This book is a collection of essays about the history of China from the pre-Qin Dynasty to the late Yuan Dynasty. It lists dozens of important figures in the approximately 2,000-year history from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the retreat of Emperor Shun of the Yuan Dynasty to the north, and provides a detailed analysis of the cause and effect of China's historical process. Focusing on characters, we explore the characteristics of Chinese history and culture through their people, their events and their actions at key points in history, and analyze them from today's standpoint. The focus is on using the "big historical perspective" to discuss Chinese history and commending the fact that Chinese history has its own characteristics and has been coherent through various dynasties and politically divided stages. Although each chapter is roughly based on the genre of biography, the influence of the narrative far exceeds the personal experience of the people at that time.

Maybe Chinese history really needs to be discussed by people from outside the country.
It's worth watching and like it
The content of the book is very good. It is suitable for people who are interested in history. History teachers have repeatedly recommended it. It is helpful for learning history. It can add some extracurricular knowledge and have a better understanding of the teaching materials.
So-so! Don't think that foreign monks can chant sutras, they may be crooked monks!
