Features: To understand the Three Gorges, develop the Three Gorges, and build the Three Gorges, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the historical past of the Three Gorges, especially its historical geography. When the Three Gorges Project was launched, Mr. Chen Kewei and others from the Historical Geography Research Office of the Institute of History at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences recognized this need and established a dedicated research project, supported by the academy and the institute. After several years of collective effort, this project achieved outstanding results, which are specifically reflected in this book, A Study of Historical Geography in the Yangtze Three Gorges Region.
