For the Love of a Princess (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

A story of the Ancient Huns of the Gobi Desert. It is exciting, historically based and contains information not generally available in the western world. Nearly one thousand seven hundred years ago, in 290 AD, the ruler of China was the Emperor Hwai Ti, of the Dsin Dynasty. His edicts governed the lives of millions of Chinese, who cultivated the fertile soil of the valleys of far eastern Asia, through which great rivers poured their floods into the Yellow Sea. This "Flowery Kingdom" was so remote from Europe that its existence was practically unknown there. The capital city of the Emperor Hwei Ti was Loyang, situated in the north-east of China on the River Lo, to the west of present day Peking. This book deals with the eventual conquering of China, due to the strategy and courage of the leader of the Huns, Shanyu Tatun. The ancient Huns camped in Mongolia in the Gobi Desert in Central Asia nearly two thousand years ago. Not even the Great Wall could keep Sanyu Tatun out of China and from his beloved Princess Fei, who is held in captivity by the usurper of the throne, Yueh.
