Also as nice as it is to get books for free, libgen is not a legal source. I suggest removing the link to prevent any issues. It's been the target of numerous lawsuits in America. The UK has also attempted banning their URLs several times.
Oh wow......... Im sincerely sorry. I didnt know that it was straight up banned in the UK and had a crackdown in the USA until I just read up their wiki page. I always thought it was just one of the many torrent/piracy websites that Governments just close one eye and turn the other cheek.
If work is not legal, don't post it as could get the site into trouble. If your not sure about legality, please talk to staff before posting
Strictly noted. Again, Im truly apologetic for all the trouble that I had caused.
Liu Bei did nothing wrong.

Don't worry Han, you meant well and apology accepted, I just tend to take a careful approach as mod to anything that might have potential backfire.

Are we talking 3kingdoms, fall of Han or do you want the early destruction of Northern Xiongnu and ladies of Emperor Huan as well?

Thank you Dong! That will make it a far more manageable job! Traditionally I've limited the list to the fall of the Han and the Three Kingdoms proper, starting at the Yellow Turbans. I could be inclined to stretch it as far as the ladies of Emperor Huan as that has direct implications on He Jin and his struggle with the eunuchs.

My last exam is on Monday, so I'll edit it all in then :D.

Putting this together now. I might be being daft here but I couldn't see To Establish Peace among your linked options Dong, is that no longer available?

EDIT: Sorry for being so lazy! I've found it myself.

Now I'm looking at RDC's page on the website I feel like there are even more I wish to add, probably won't do that today though!

Also I've decided not to add:
- 'official titles of Han' as it is a source focusing on the Early Han and I think there are better equivalent sources (like this book by Hans Bielenstein) which actually focuses on our period
- 'Southern China during the Han' as RDC comments himself that the first chapter of GOS is an expansion of the talk he gave.

Certainly not your bad! It wouldn't be fair of me to expect you to account for my stupidity :lol:.

Anyway, the English language source thread has been updated to include the correct addresses!
