Features: The "Records of the Grand Historian," the "Twenty-Five Histories," and the "Mirror for Governing" are some of the great books in Chinese history, few of which are unknown, but even fewer are carefully read. This is mainly because these classical works are massive, vast in scope, ancient in origin, and the language is difficult, making them seem daunting. Now, we present them to you in the form of illustrated stories. The writers are all erudite scholars, and the illustrators are renowned masters in the art world. During the writing and illustration process, they diligently studied the original texts, strictly respected historical facts, presented accurate and vivid narratives, used elegant and concise language, created delicate and complete illustrations, and employed simple yet powerful compositions. They strive to make history enjoyable and easy to read, allowing everyone to subtly improve and benefit from it throughout their lives.
