Xu Ke (Chinese: 徐珂; pinyin: Xú Kē; 1869–1928) was a Chinese author. He wrote an "unofficial" history of the Qing Dynasty, Qing Bai Lei Chao [zh], published in 48 volumes in 1917.[1] Author and UC Irvine professor Yong Chen said the book "provides an encyclopedic coverage of life during the Qing Dynasty."[2]
