About the book: 2013 / China, as you know, is rich in ancient sights, natural beauty and great history. Alexey Delnov's book about China is not just the first illustrated history of China in modern Russia from the founding of the state to the present day. This is a unique work in content and design covering the entire millennia of Chinese history. Hundreds of illustrations, an excursion into religion, philosophy, descriptions of the life of Chinese emperors and their subjects... The book is written easily and witty - it is an interesting and educational read. The history of China seems to play with genres, presenting itself to us as a melodrama, a novel, or an action-packed action movie. Therefore, take the book in your hands, flip through the pages, and during the most interesting reading you won’t notice how you will discover an ancient and mysterious country that only we call “China.”».
