The distinguished China scholar Jonathan Spence has pored over Zhang Dai's extraordinary documents, and in Return to Dragon Mountain he brings 17th-century China vividly to life. Absorbing, subtle, and beautifully observed, Return to Dragon Mountain illuminates a complex and sophisticated society at a moment of profound cultural transformation. And in doing so, it reveals the ways in which China's history continues to affect its place in the world today.
