A Biographical Dictionary of the Qin, Former Han and Xin Periods (221 BC - AD 24).

This is a unique and conclusive reference work about the 6,000 individual men and women known to us from China's formative first empires. No comparable work exists. Without exaggeration a real 'must' for historians of both China and other cultures.
