Reader comments
Moreover, the annotations and analysis in the book are also very thorough, like a patient teacher explaining to me. This reminded me of the "Historical Records" I had read before. They are all classics of ancient history books. By reading these books, I can not only understand the past, but also draw wisdom from them, allowing me to better understand how to behave in life.
