Features: The author is a professional in fine arts and art criticism, having published several works on art and art criticism. As for literary and historical writing, this book is a comeback, a learning experience, and an attempt. It is also a great honor that The Train of 1910 is the first literary work in Yunnan and even the country that directly reflects the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway. The Train of 1910 is awe-inspiring and groundbreaking. China, with its primitive Yunnan frontier, struck sparks of human civilization. Based on a fresh perspective and rich, detailed historical records, the book weaves together numerous anecdotes and stories, presenting for the first time a comprehensive, objective, authentic, and vivid account of the century-long history of the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway. Its integration of historical significance, knowledge, and entertainment is one of its key features; another is the profound historical weight and the book's exploration, reflection, and contemplation of certain historical issues. At the same time, it vividly recreates major historical events in Yunnan in the first half of the 20th century and the significant activities of historical figures such as Cai E, Yuan Jiagu, Chen Heting, and Fang Suoya. The publication of this book fills a gap in modern Chinese history.
