On the 600th anniversary of its virgin voyage, nothing is more celebratory than recalling the legendary life of Zheng He, the commander of that spectacular maritime parade. The authors resurrect the character with their faithful portrayal of Zheng He as a loyal and devoted public servant together with having an innate ability to lead and influence. The text overflows with emotions that are complemented by oversized illustrations lavishly depicting the magnitude of this historical enterprise. One can easily become as engrossed in the paintings as one does in the fast-moving events of the story.
