Since some of the chapters focused on too many technical details to be feasible for a one-year project, we focused on translating the chapters in the book that detail Liu Chi-Min\u2019s life rather than the battles he was part of. To this end, our goal was to translate chapters 1,2,4,7,8,9, and 10 of the biography.
