Masters in the Wilderness: A Century of Chinese Archaeology

A book worth reading, full of deep thoughts, feelings, regrets, and admiration! The language is plain and direct to people's hearts, the stance is objective and pertinent, the rational evaluation is full of the brilliance of speculation, and the plain narrative can always touch your heartstrings at a certain moment!

This book reminds me of a friend of mine who also came out of the mountains and kept working hard for his dreams. The persistence and courage of the famous archaeologists described in the book in difficult circumstances made me admire them very much. Their stories also taught me that no matter how difficult life is, we must have the courage and determination to chase our dreams. This book not only allowed me to understand the history of Chinese archeology, but also made me feel the spiritual power of the masters. It is worth reading!

The book depicts many famous archaeologists, such as Li Ji, Zhao Yuanren, Wu Mi, Jia Lanpo, Xia Jian, Liang Sicheng, Lin Huiyin, Liang Siyong, etc. The author uses delicate and sensitive writing style to describe their work and contributions at the archaeological site and academic study, highlighting their courage and perseverance to open up new horizons in adversity, and their deeds of serving the country with passion and professionalism at a time of internal and external troubles.

From this, we have a deeper understanding of the unremitting efforts and huge contributions of this generation of scholar elites, and we are deeply saddened by the various sufferings that the times have inflicted on them. Their contribution to the entire nation is huge. Their rigorous scientific research spirit and pure patriotism should be known to more Chinese people!

The masters who worked tirelessly during the war years are amazing! A good book worth reading 👍👍👍

Give time time, let the past pass and the beginning begin. . "Jiang guests come in from the quiet path, and the plumes return to knock on the small door." This is a tribute to the masters who forge ahead and never forget their original aspirations. .

It's very beautiful. The achievements of the predecessors will make future generations more amazed.
