The book was lost at some point in history, and the only surviving accounts of it are from the Annotated Records of the Three Kingdoms by Pei Songzhi.
During the Ming dynasty, Wang Shijian (王世間) compiled these fragments and published them as a collection.
The Book of Sui says that "There were eight volumes by Wang Can named Records of Late Han Heroes.
"[1] The Old Book of Tang says that "[one of] Wang Can's ten volumes were named Records of Late Han Heroes".
However as Wang Can described Cao Cao as "holy ruler" (聖君) in his "A Poem of Military Service" (從軍詩), we cannot say with full certainty that Wang Can did not put "Late Han" in the title of his book".
