The Qin Empire (Newly Illustrated Edition)

by SUN Haohui

Description

One of the best-selling history novels in China.

Strategy and survival, a canon for that grand yet turbulent era.

At the end of the Warring Kingdoms Period, Qin was merely a small kingdom which was facing severe challenges for its survival. Starting from the rule of Duke Xiao of Qin and followed by the next six dukes, a grand reform commenced and carried on, until Qin became the strongest amongst all the kingdoms, and united the whole nation. The Qin Empire was established and became the first unified dynasty in the history of China.

The Qin Empire not only tells the tale of Qin’s reforms, warfare and success, but also the stories about the rise and fall of the kingdoms at that time. It is a novel about an empire, and also about kings and heroes, the essence of politics and the spirit of survival. This new edition is carefully revised, and contains beautiful illustrations by Dai Hongqian (戴红倩), renowned traditional Chinese artist and illustrator.
