Imperial China. The Definitive Visual History

Explore the long and rich history of China's great dynasties.

From the clans and legends of prehistory to the last Qing emperor, this book brings China's imperial history to life through its pivotal events, political forces, and powerful people, in a stunning collaboration between British and Chinese publishing houses.Covering more than 5,000 years of history and featuring images of artefacts not previously seen outside of China, this definitive visual guide will captivate readers with the key events that shaped Chinese history and laid the foundations of the modern nation. Starting with prehistory and early humans, Imperial China sets the scene for the arrival of China's first dynasty, and reveals how the warring states of early China gave birth to the emperor-led dynasties - and China's long imperial age. With illuminating features on important historical figures, cultural achievements, and philosophy - such as the rise of Confucianism and the silk and tea trades - Imperial China explores how the Chinese empire flourished and declined over the course of two millennia - from the unifying 'first emperor' of the Qin and the golden ages of Tang and Song, to the final fall of the Manchu Qing dynasty.With stunning photography of art and artefacts to bring key events to life, this exquisite and comprehensive history is ideal for anyone who wants to learn more about China's extraordinary heritage.

Men’s Casual Linen Blazer – Halloween Edition
Size: Small, Color: Light Blue, Size: Small, Color: Light Blue
Bought this for my 15-year-old daughter’s Halloween costume—she was the blue tux half of Dumb and Dumber and absolutely nailed it. The blazer looked exactly like the photo and totally completed her look. She’s 5’0” and 95 lbs, so the smallest size was still oversized (as expected for a men’s cut), but it worked perfectly for the costume’s vibe. Quality was solid for the price, and it held up through a night of candy, chaos, and photo ops. Verdict: Not tailored for petite teens, but if you’re going for comedic flair or costume gold, it’s a win.

Nice sport coat
Size: X-Large, Color: Khaki
The quality is good but the beige color had a pinkish tone to it that I didn’t care for so it was returned. It’s a nice sport coat otherwise for the price! My husband wears a 42 long but the XL fit well.

I wasn’t expecting much for about $50
Size: Medium, Color: Blue, Size: Medium, Color: Blue
I was in a hurry from for a casual dinner jacket for a Caribbean cruise with my 11 year old this week. I wasn’t gonna be picky. 1) it looks like 70’s leisure suit material 2) what looks like lint are little bits of white polyester thread. When picked off one of said pieces of lint, this picture with the long thread happened 3) it came folded in a manner you should not fold a jacket. 4) Its 19% linen 1% cotton but it looks 0% natural materials 5) A 40R fits me well and I’ll not be able to button this size M, it’s too small for me. It will work unbuttoned 6) I’d return if I had an option. It’s low stakes, I’ll wear it twice and never again. 7) The pictures in the ad are fair, just look at all of them, not just the first one. Overall I don’t think it should be marketed as linen.
