Children's Historical Geography is an introduction to the historical geography of China written by Professor Tang Xiaofeng, a historical geographer, for young readers. Easy to understand and read. This book tells the story of China's ancient and great civilization process from the dual perspectives of history and geography. From the perspectives of civilized space, regional society, environment and humanities, local customs, dynasty changes, maps and figures, the author interprets the mystery of China's historical geography with concrete examples, and with nearly 100 illustrations and maps, it lasts for 5,000 years, so that children can know China in history and Chinese civilization in geography.

The content in this book is a combination of historical geography knowledge and truth (including ideas), in order to help readers understand the land under our feet and the relationship between ancestors and this land from a historical perspective. What is knowledge, what is truth, and how to arrange truth with knowledge, I hope readers can judge. [2]
