"The Lower Reaches." Journey aboard the clipper Essex to China, and the Chinese war-steamer Confucius up the Yangtze River into the heart of China following the maps in the novel Yang Shen and visit the locations of the story. This video takes a reader to many places in the story all in one presentation.

Continuing in the tradition of Shōgun and Taipan, James Lande is writing a blockbuster novel about the adventure of a 19th Century American soldier-of-fortune who returns to China to topple the Manchu dynasty and make himself a prince, even emperor, in China. Arriving in the midst of the bloodiest civil war in human history, Fletcher Thorson Wood instead takes up the imperial cause against the "Christian" rebels, trains and fights beside native Chinese troops and mandarins, builds the most powerful army in China, and as reward for his achievements is made not a prince but a Chinese god. If you liked Shōgun, you may also like Yang Shen.
