5.0 out of 5 stars Books for Class, September 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hawai'i Reader in Traditional Chinese Culture (Hardcover)
I ordered this book for my Chinese History class. Its very well organized and easy to work though. Sometimes it's a little bit hard to understand, but with proper context and close reading its a good resource. I read the text alongside class lectures, as well as reading chapters in a second book, so it all fits together to create a well-rounded understanding of the material.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic source material, November 9, 2006
This review is from: Hawai'i Reader in Traditional Chinese Culture (Hardcover)
It's some very nice translations of original Chinese texts with good intros to set the stage and give some background of what you're about to read. And each text is properly referenced so one can understand context better. A really quite fascinating look and Chinese history and culture though the ages in, more or less, their own words.
