This is an unread copy of Ancient China, part of the Great Ages of Man series which Time-Life Books began publishing in the 60s. This book was written in 1967 by the American academic Edward Schafer, Professor of Oriental Languages at Berkeley.

This is the first edition, sixth printing.
It's 8 3/4" x 10 3/4". 191 pages, including loads of photos, maps and drawings.

At some point, the front endpaper, which is green, became damp. There is a bookplate on the inside front cover. The green from the endpaper transferred to the bookplate. But you can remove the bookplate.

There is a little wear to the outside fabric edge and spine.
Otherwise pristine condition.

Note: Also here on Biblio, I have three other books from the same series: Ancient Egypt, Imperial Rome and the Rise of Russia
