Book Description:

The first comprehensive portrait of a dynamic Chinese emperor who laid many of the bureaucratic foundations of modern China.

From the Back Cover:
"Yongle traveled with an entourage of government officials and courtiers and logistical personnel that make American presidential trips look puny--and the Emperor always took with him 10,000 cavalry soldiers and 40,000 foot soldiers. Yongle, in short, never did anything in a small way." -- Nicholas D. Kristof, (New York Times)
