Features: This book is a theoretical monograph on the history of salt production in the Three Gorges region. It is divided into three main parts: the formation of salt resources in the Three Gorges region during geological times and their relationship with early human activities, salt policies and salt production in the Three Gorges region through the ages, and the changes in salt policies and salt production in the Three Gorges region during the 20th century. It provides a detailed introduction to the development process of salt production in the Three Gorges region, making it suitable for researchers and students in the field of salt production development. The abundant salt resources in the Three Gorges region have had a very clear impact and drive on the economic development and social changes of the region. However, due to insufficient documentary materials and a lack of archaeological findings, people's understanding of the historical context and development status of the salt industry economy in the Three Gorges region has remained fragmented and unclear for a long time, despite the hard work of experts in exploring this topic.
