Features: "In terms of literature, Mr. Cai's book can only be considered mediocre. But, it is a mine, towering like a mountain, with lush forests, flowing springs and waterfalls, containing coal, iron, gold, and jade. Naturally, there are also soil and inconspicuous sand and gravel. Its extraordinary quality lies in its abundant reserves. As mentioned earlier, it was not born out of obedience to orders or reviews, but was born in time. During the collapse of the feudal system and the turmoil of the new era, he devoted his life to composing this epic, which can be heard as a dirge and can also be seen as a harbinger of the new era. In terms of practical significance, its vitality is still growing. How many people today can still read the traditional character edition of the 24 Histories? Not many, even those who can read the simplified character classical text edition cannot. But our national history must inherit and continue. Reading Mr. Cai's book can guide you to the entry, and it is the only one, with no substitutes. In this sense, it is truly remarkable."
