Revival: Li Chih 1527-1602 in Contemporary Chinese Historiography (1980): New light on his life and works (Routledge Revivals) 1st Edition, Kindle Edition

In a modest way it is an attempt to make these new sources of information more readily accessible to the sinological community to faciliate research.
