The Three Kingdoms, Volume 3: Welcome The Tiger, Volume 3 - The Epic Chinese Tale of Loyalty and War in a Dynamic New Translation (with Footnotes) (Paperback, Edition, First Edition, First ed.)

This exciting new translation will appeal to modern readers who find the twists and turns of "Game of Thrones" so compelling.
"The Three Kingdoms" is an epic Chinese novel written over six centuries ago. It recounts in vivid historical detail the turbulent years at the close of the Han Dynasty, when China broke into three competing kingdoms and over half the population were either killed or driven from their homes. Part myth, part fact, readers will experience the loyalty and treachery, the brotherhood and rivalry of China's legendary heroes and villains during the most tumultuous period in Chinese history.
Considered the greatest work in classic Chinese literature, "The Three Kingdoms" is read by millions throughout Asia today. Seen not just as a great work of art, many Chinese view it as a guide to success in life and business as well as a work that offers great moral clarity--while many foreigners read it to gain insights into Chinese society and culture. From the saga of "The Three Kingdoms," readers will learn how great warriors motivate their troops and enhance their influence, while disguising their weaknesses and turning the strengths of others against them.
This third volume concludes the tale of Liu Bei and his sworn brothers-in-arms, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, whose loyalty and fidelity are sorely tested in a society at war for its very survival.
