O.k.I guess by now you've noticed that my blog is not the typical adoption blog that you often see. (I have to say this blogging thing is great!) I am a history buff or nut (I'm a History major specializing in German History and the Holocaust - but that's another blog one day perhaps)and I love all things Chinese. So, that being the case I feel I've been let loose with this blog.
Since my husband has complained that I have gotten carried away in writing some of my earlier posts I've decided to just list some adult books on Chinese Military (history) that you may find interesting. So, if you do find that you would like to do some reading on Military topics how about getting your hands on one or more of the following:
