Xi'an, Shaanxi & the Terracotta Warriors (First Edition)
Paul Mooney
This comprehensive guidebook, highlighting the city and its environs, leads the reader on a journey through China's glorious ancient history, from the origin of the distinctive landscape of northern China and the early stirrings of Neolithic culture at sites like Banpo, through its rise to Imperial capital in the Qin, Han and Tang (among other periods), to its relative decline and vital modern role as an administrative center and investment portal to China's vast northwest frontier.
