Synopsis

This book is a novel telling the story of First Emperor of Qin. Ying Zheng, First Emperor of Qin, succeeded to the throne, becoming the king of Qin State at the age of 14. After ten years of wars, he destroyed the six states, and established the first feudal dynasty in Chinese history -- Qin dynasty. He set up prefectures and counties, unified the country¡¯s administration, characters, currency, as well as weights and measures, and built the Great Wall and roads. At the same time, he went in for large-scale construction, burnt books and buried the literati in pits, and was positively inhumane. He is the most controversial emperor in Chinese history. In the process of human history, the First Emperor of Qin is profoundly influencing the past, the present and the future. In this sense, the First Emperor of Qin well deserves the high reputation of ¡°great emperor through the ages¡±, and is also one of the greatest emperors in human history.
