Features: The definition of popular historian does not hinder Roerich from being enthusiastically accepted and read by readers for half a century. Roerich's pen, "has a magic," makes people "lose track of time and fatigue," the review from Yu Dafu half a century ago is still accurate today. This book collects the essence of Roerich's various character biographies, from artists to philosophers, from Dante to Peter the Great, and so on. This book reflects Roerich's consistent characteristics—he can easily break through historical barriers, bringing history to life with both intimacy and familiarity, filled with intellectual reflection.
