Trying to squeeze an entire history of Chinese civilization into a brief, one volume account is a formidable task, but one that has succeeded brilliantly here. Hilda Hookham has provided us with a concise story that, while not getting too entangled with personalities and cultural issues, manages to navigate the swirling passage of events that comprise over 3,000 years of Chinese political history.

A concise but far-reaching history, from a pro from Maoist perspective. This is not my perspective but still, as someone with little knowledge about Chinese history, I found the book quite informative -- until the penultimate chapter which shows the writer had little understanding of China in the 20th century . Fortunately the final chapter addresses the shortcomings. Three cheers for the narrator -- fabulous
