Chronicles of Xinhai in Guizhou Province with Traces of Time

"Traces of Time: The Chronicle of Xinhai in Guizhou" is a piece of modern local documentary literature that takes the entire transformation of the Xinhai Revolution in Guizhou as the grand main line and the fate of civilian families in troubled times as the microscopic auxiliary line. The book is based on the turbulent situation in southwest China at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China. It completely retraces the decline of the late Qing Dynasty and the peaceful recovery of Guizhou in 1911. With a narrative style that blends reality and fiction, it reproduces the tragic years of the first year of the Republic of China when Guizhou was turbulent, its ideals were disillusioned, and mountains and rivers changed.
