- Kurztext
- China's Great Wall seems to be a confident physical statement made by an advanced civilization. This book explores the conquests and cataclysms of the Chinese empire, examining: the emperors who planned new phases of building; the people who constructed and guarded the walls; and the millions who died - of overwork, starvation, cold and combat.
