Abstract
One of the fortunes of war has been the flight from Europe and Asia to the United States of numberless things of value, among them certain Chinese books and manuscripts belonging to the National Library of Peiping. The latter were deposited for safe keeping in the Library of Congress in the autumn of 1941. One very considerable item in this group is the Ming shih-lu or Veritable records of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), which the Library of Congress and Columbia University have been permitted to reproduce in micro-film.
