I'm looking for a book that gives a brief overview of Chinese history.
I know nothing about it.

How brief are we talking here? If you want something less than 500 pages you should just skim through Wikipedia.

China history is about 30 % real and 70% exaggeration, especially the number of soldiers involved in battles.
