Download The Last Manchu: The Autobiography of Henry Pu Yi, Last Emperor of China AudioBook Free
In 1908, at the age of two, Henry Pu Yi ascended to be the last emperor of the centuries-old Manchu dynasty. After revolutionaries pressured Pu Yi to abdicate in 1911, the young emperor lived for 13 years in Peking's Forbidden City, but with none of them of the energy his labor and birth afforded him. The rest of Pu Yi's life was lived out in a topsy-turvy fashion: fleeing from a Chinese warlord, becoming mind of your Japanese puppet condition, being confined to a Russian prison in Siberia, and enduring taxing labor. The Last Manchu is a unique, enthralling record of China's most turbulent, remarkable years.
