Terra Cotta Warriors: Ancient China's Legendary Underground Army
From the depths of an ancient underworld thousands of long-buried, life-size terra cotta warriors slowly emerged into the light of day. They were enlisted in the permanent service of China's First Emperor, built to protect him in death. Years of excavation revealed what is now considered to be one of the twentieth century's greatest archaeological discoveries. Filled with remarkable color photographs, Terra Cotta Warriors is a fascinating introduction to these warriors-their purpose; how they were fashioned, unearthed, and restored; and the life and times of the man who ordered their construction. This book also reveals the magnificent wonders believed to be buried beneath the Emperor's unexcavated tomb mound, part of a massive complex whose full extent remains a secret.
