by J.R. Worsley This book has been a fantastic purchase, I suppose it’s bound to be a good book because it’s the subject I spent three years studying, written by the man himself! Aside from my bias, I found it to be a very readable book in a language that is really easy to understand. […]
by Lonny S. Jarrett Peter Eckman in his forward to the book states that both Jarrett and Worsley have a ‘touch of genius’ and ‘meet the criteria for spirits and sages’ as set out in the Nan Jing.

Ogal, Wolfram Stor This is probably a very odd book to do a review on, as it’s more a pictorial atlas, however I was so impressed with this publication that I feel it warrants writing about.
