China's Second Capital : Nanjing Under the Ming 1, Paperback by Fang, Jun, ISBN 1138079367, ISBN-13 9781138079366, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This book is a study of the dual capital system of Ming dynasty China (1), with a focus on the administrative functions of the auxiliary Southern Capital, Nanjing. It argues that the immense geographical expanse of the Chinese empire and the poor communication infrastructure of pre-modern times necessitated the establishment of an additional capital administration for effective control of the Ming realm.
