This is a bibliography-in-progress of works in Western
languages on the period of Chinese history between the end of the
Han dynasty and the Sui reunification (220-589). The intent is
to be as inclusive as possible, but it is likely that some works
have been overlooked. Suggestions of additional titles to add
can be sent to Ken Klein.
