Solid research, rich information
| Customer Rating: | | I grew up in Guizhou, and has always been very facinated by its history. The Miao people is certainly the center piece of its turbulent past. I have heard many stories about the rebellion described in this book, mostly from my grantparents who lived among the Miao people. This book certainly captured the main story line of that period. Eventhough the amount of data gathered by the author could have been more, the arguments and conclusions presented are well reasoned and mostly correct. The book also contains a great deal of hard-to-find information about Guizhou, such as its geography, climate, society, economy, etc. Surprisingly, most of these information are fairly accurate when judged against the present conditions of Guizhou province. The book would have been rated five stars if it had been updated with more recent findings of the subject. I guess that could be the reason for another book on the same topic. |
