Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Travelers' Tales China brings travelers - armchair or actual - a breadth and depth of experience from both new and well-known authors that will help make the China experience unforgettable and transforming. These pages cover 6,000 years of history up to modern-day socialist China, from the Silk Road to the high-tech center of Beijing. Explore the old as well as the new - from the tombs of dead emperors to the world's largest dam. The vastness of the Gobi Desert, the darkness of the assault on Nanking, the upheavals of the Cultural Revolution, and the 700 nature preserves in a country that boasts more wildlife than any other in the world - these are just a few of the subjects in this literate, lively book.
