Book Recommendation: The History of Many Countries in Zhou Dynasty

It's occurred around between 770 to 476 BCE. The period is as well known as The Spring and Autumn and The Warring State Period . It has about 700,000 words. (That's a lot). Actually, I made up the book name, because I double there is a English version of this book, at least an acceptable version compared with the original. It is about how Qin Dynasty ever united China.

In my opinion, this book is better than the well known Three Dynasty. The complication of the book is very board. It involves many countries, economic theory, philosophy, politic, different level of people, war, and even psychology. About characters, it has couple hundreds. They all work for different people and have different personality. Beside the history part, the book itself is also a literature. I read the book few years ago, and I plan to reread it again.
