Publishing Date: Not available
Features: This book consists of 60 volumes and is a chronological history written by the renowned scholar Huang Yizhou and others during the late Qing Dynasty to fill in the missing parts of the "Continuation of the Comprehensive Mirror for Aid in Government" (Xuzizhitongjian Changbian). Li Tao's "Continuation of the Comprehensive Mirror for Aid in Government" from the Southern Song Dynasty is one of the fundamental historical sources for studying the Song Dynasty. However, the commonly used editions lack records of the reigns of Emperors Huizong and Qinzong, as well as events from the fourth year of Emperor Yingzong's reign to the third month of the third year of Emperor Shenzong's reign, and from the seventh month of the eighth year of Emperor Zhezong's reign to the third month of the fourth year of Emperor Shaosheng's reign.
