About This Novel
In this book, teacher Ma Yong uses more than ten important figures as clues to record the modern history of China and puts forward many new theories. For example, based on Weng Tonghe's specific actions, words and articles before and after the Reform Movement of 1898, he connected the process from the initiation to the failure of the Reform Movement; another example is that Kang Youwei went into exile after the failure of the Reform Movement of 1898 and claimed that he had received the "Belt Order" from Emperor Guangxu. Nowadays, academic circles generally believe that Kang Youwei was lying, but the author has come to a new view through analysis; and so on. In this book, the author shows readers how people in history affect historical events, thereby affecting the direction of the entire history. These articles are rigorously written and written with subtle insights. They are different from emotional historical essays and grand and professional historical papers. They must be well-founded and easy to understand and read. This book brings together the author's discussions on the main figures and important events in modern China in the past ten years. The author believes that big men make history. They make decisions with more power than the average person. However, the people are the ultimate creators of history. Many major breakthroughs in history, which changed the direction of the historical process, were often little people who attracted no attention. Little people leverage big history. The valuable thing about the author is that he can always provide readers with an idea for discussing history in his character descriptions, striving to find the logic of history and open up the history of ancient and modern civilizations.
