5.0 out of 5 stars Great Guide to Premodern East Asian History
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2018

If you are a high school student who wants to go beyond the superficial introduction to premodern East Asian history presented in your text book -- or a teacher who wants to get a deeper understanding of the complex historical relationship between Korea, China, and Japan -- this is the book for you. Also very suitable for college courses.

For a college level text book, I really enjoyed reading this. It is very easy to read and understand and the index in the back is excellent for quick finding anything. I'll be keeping this book instead of reselling it.
