The Great Wall: The Extraordinary Story of China's Wonder of the World Book

The Great Wall of China is a wonder of the world. Every year, hundreds of thousands of tourists take the five-mile journey from Beijing to climb its battlements.

In this riveting account, John Man travels the entire length of the Great Wall and across two millennia to find the truth behind the legends.
