In an era dominated by male rulers, one woman's extraordinary rise to power left an indelible mark on Chinese history. "Cixi: The Iron Lady of China's Imperial Court" chronicles the fascinating journey of Empress Dowager Cixi, from her humble beginnings as a concubine to her unprecedented reign over the Qing Dynasty.
