Spanning thousands of years, it encompasses stories of murder and betrayal, bravery and corruption; of triads, syndicates, kingmakers, merchants, emperors, generals, spies, and pirates. Consistently praised for his scholarship and his ability to weave multiple strands into a fast-paced narrative, Sterling Seagrave provides us with not only a masterly history, but also a cautionary tale - for the strategies that have proven so successful for the Chinese in the past are just as effective today. Lords of the Rim furnishes a fascinating portal into both the past and the future of the world's Pacific economy ; Contents: Thick Face, Black Heart -- A Stew of hounds -- Sweet Revenge, Eaten Cold -- Elixir of Youth -- The Man Who Discovered Europe -- Children of Yueh -- Sanbao the Sailor -- Chairman of the High Seas -- Part Two: Empire -- 9.
