Shao's book is a welcome addition to the field of Manchurian
studies in that it provides new materials and offers a
comprehensive look at the Manchus' experience in the twentieth
century amidst rapid state succession and social changes. Her book
is especially satisfactory for readers who seek an insider view of
the Manchus instead of Han
Chinese or Japanese views. . . . Shao's book is a success in itself
and is commendable for its high quality research and writing. It
has made significant contributions not only to Manchurian studies
but also to ethnological and borderland studies.-- "Asian Studies
