It is an ideal resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in learning about the rich and complex civilization of China.The Chinese people reverence above all things literature and learning; they hate war, bearing in mind the saying of Mencius, ""There is no such thing as a righteous war; we can only assert that some wars are better than others;"" and they love trade and the finesse of the market-place. China can boast many great soldiers, in modern as well as in ancient days.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
