Reader comments

This "Color Illustrated Historical Records" is very good! The author Sima Qian is really great. The historical materials he records are very rich, giving us a deeper understanding of Chinese history. Moreover, the characters in the book have distinctive personalities and interesting experiences, just like Huangdi, who was born as a god and became smart and wise when he grew up, which is really admirable. The content of this book is also consistent with the laws of human civilization progress and is of great historical value.
