5.0 out of 5 stars A Good Book in Manchu Studies, January 19, 2005

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Manchu Way: The Eight Banners and Ethnic Identity in Late Imperial China (Paperback)
If you are interested in Manchu studies and ethnicity, don't miss this book. Dr. Elliott mainly used Manchu, Chinese, English, and Japanese source about the Qing (Ch'ing) eight banners system, and reviewed relative studies. He tried to combine the historical institution and Manchu ethnic identity in this ambitious research. Although Dr. Crossley also tried to discuss this issue, I just preferred Elliott's point of view -- "New Traditionalism." I recommend this book for readers of Manchu Studies, history, and anthropology.
