The chronological history covers the historical process from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the establishment of the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, and finally the return of the world to the Jin Dynasty. Among them, thirty volumes of "Book of Wei", fifteen volumes of "Book of Shu", and twenty volumes of "Book of Wu" respectively show the rise and fall of the Three Kingdoms, providing the most original and authoritative information for later generations to study the history of the Three Kingdoms, and also providing a solid historical foundation for literary creations such as "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The author Chen Shou served in the Shu-Han Dynasty and wrote history after entering the Jin Dynasty. Since it was relatively close to the Three Kingdoms era, the historical materials are detailed and the narrative is concise and vivid. Although there is no table or ambition, the important events and activities in politics, military, diplomacy, etc. Are outlined through biographies, showing the life stories and character traits of historical figures such as Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Sun Quan. This work, together with "Historical Records", "Hanshu" and "Later Hanshu", is known as the "First Four Histories" and has a high status in the field of history.
