About the book

The first comprehensive English-language biography of Emperor Huizong corrects the prevailing view of this ruler as a decadent political failure who lost the throne to invaders. Ebrey recasts the artistically gifted emperor as passionate and paradoxical, yet genuinely ambitious-if too much so-in pursuing glory for his flourishing realm.
