Requests:  0 Summary:  "Black Dragon River is a personal journey down one of Asia's great rivers that reveals the region's essential history and culture. The world's ninth largest river, the Amur serves as a large part of the border between Russia and China. As a crossroads for the great empires of Asia, this area offers journalist Dominic Ziegler a lens with which to examine the societies at Europe's only borderland with east Asia. He follows a journey from the river's top to bottom, and weaves the history, ecology and peoples to show a region obsessed with the past--and to show how this region holds a key to the complex and critical relationship between Russia and China today"--NoveList.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 915.77 Zi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 915.77 Ziegler Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 915.77 Zi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 915.77 Zi Checked In Add Copy to MyList
