Product Description

The mighty Yangtze River—the third-longest river in the world—is the birthplace of Chinese civilization. This intriguing book takes readers along this ancient transportation route, strategic natural boundary, and lifeblood of an agricultural society. The near completion of the Three Gorges Dam has displaced more than a million people and changed the river's ecosystem dramatically.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fine pick for any library strong in world geography, Jun 19 2010

By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Yangtze: China's Majestic River (Library Binding)

The 'Rivers Around the World' series is a fine pick for any library strong in world geography. Each book focuses on a different major world river, discussing history, peoples who depend upon it, travel and commerce, and comparison to other world rivers. THE GANGES: INDIA'S SACRED RIVER, THE AMAZON: RIVER IN A RAIN FOREST, THE YANGTZE: CHINA'S MAJESTIC RIVER, THE TIGRIS AND EUPHRATES: RIVERS OF THE FERTILE CRESCENT, THE ST. LAWRENCE: RIVER ROUTE TO THE GREAT LAKES, THE NILE: RIVER IN THE SAND, THE RHINE: EUROPE'S RIVER HIGHWAY and THE MISSISSIPPI: AMERICA'S MIGHTY RIVER are fine study guides for any general geography library.
