Description
Excerpt from The Imperial History of China: Being a History of the Empire as Compiled by the Chinese Historians
History of China, as it has been written, during successive ages, by the authorized historians of the Empire. This work, together with the writings Of Confucius and Mencius, are the only truly authentic sources from which the story of this long-lived nation can be obtained.
During the past there have been many writers of note who have professed to give a history of their times, but their works have been so interlarded with manifestly fabulous stories and incredible statements that they could not possibly be accepted as genuine history.
