Professor Anthony Carty, a British expert in international law, spent more than a decade researching the national archives of France, the United Kingdom, the United States and other countries since the end of the 19th century regarding the ownership of the South China Sea Islands. Based on historical facts and legal principles, he clarified the historical changes and sovereignty issues of the South China Sea Islands. Divided into two parts, namely "Archives of Historical Ownership of the South China Sea Islands: The Spratly Islands" and "British and French Archives Concerning the Ownership of the Paracel Islands from 1900 to 1975", he wrote the book "The History and Sovereignty of the South China Sea". This book, in the form of "as complete a historical narrative as possible", clearly shows that the sovereignty over the South China Sea Islands should belong to China. "China has indisputable sovereignty over the South China Sea Islands", and "the claims of other countries are dishonest, and thus it is absurd to accuse China", which is also a basic fact recognized by Western countries. However, so far, no domestic expert has explained the history and sovereignty of the South China Sea in such a comprehensive, objective and rational way.
