"Historical Records" is a general history written by Sima Qian of the Western Han Dynasty. It records a history of more than 3,000 years from the legendary Yellow Emperor to the first year of Yuanshou, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The whole book consists of twelve chronicles, thirty families, seventy biographies, ten tables, and eight books, with a total of 130 chapters and more than 500,000 words. It is the first biographical general history in Chinese history. Its pioneering biographical style was followed by the "official histories" of subsequent dynasties and has far-reaching influence.

"Selected Historical Records" selects 10 famous works from the chronicles and biographies, and annotates the difficult words and regulations in them, which is very helpful for reading and understanding the book.
