Reseña del editor:

Suzhou, China, is widely considered to be a city that can hold the mantle of “paradise on Earth.” Replete with natural beauty and a rich history to match, Suzhou has captivated the attention of poets, scholars, statesmen, and travelers from home and abroad since the earliest days of Chinese history. In this monumental new book, author Stephen L. Koss paints a vivid picture of just how important Suzhou is to the Chinese nation, its people, and its collective ethos. From its rise as a major cultural and trading center, Koss guides the reader on a journey through more than 2,000 years of Chinese history. "Beautiful Su" will stand for decades as one of the definitive statements on one of the world’s greatest cities.
