The Founding of the T ang Dynasty by Woodbridge Bingham Book PDF Summary
The end of the sixth century and the first years of the seventh marked the beginning of the "Golden Age" of the Sui and T'ang periods. After centuries of political disruption during which China had been invaded from the north and west and had been greatly affected by outside influences, chiefly Buddhism, the country was reunited under the Sui dynasty, 589-618. The latter year saw the beginning of the T'ang dynasty, an age of vigorous empire, which produced some of the world's greatest poetry and art, and which evolved a political and administrative system that was to be the model for future empires in the centuries to come. -- Preface.
