The heart of Urbanization in Early and Medieval China consists of translations of three gazetteers written during the Han (206 BCE–220 CE), Tang (618–907), and Northern Song (960–1126) dynasties describing the city of Suzhou.

Commendation Quotes: An extraordinary achievement. The scholarship is sound, and the author's command of both primary and secondary sources is quite impressive. The translations from Chinese to English are superb. They are both faithful to the original text and read quite well in English. The topic is important. Virtually all scholars who deal with premodern China at some time or another turn to these local histories for information. Commendation Quotes: I thoroughly enjoyed reading "Urbanization in Early and Medieval China." It includes a wealth of information that is not available anywhere else. The scholarship is superior.
