Record of a Ten-Thousand-Li Journey

1. First read the chapters on Shanghai, Nanjing, Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Hangzhou, then expand to other regions according to interest.
2. For each place you read about, you can use a map or a brief local history for reference to help build connections between space and history.
3. When encountering references to poetry and documents, there is no need to verify each one; first grasp the author's sentiment and judgments, then go back and examine them in detail.
4. It is suitable for reading one or two pieces a day as slow reading before bed or during travel; it is not advisable to read it all at once.

China Culture and History Press has long devoted itself to modern and contemporary literature and culture-and-history reading matter, with publishing directions centered on classic works, social novels, prose and miscellaneous writings, and Eastern philosophy, alongside culture-and-history periodicals such as Zongheng. Among the more than 1,500 titles in the collection, representative books include Zhang Henshui's Ti Xiao Yin Yuan, Lu Xun's Complete Classic Works (10 volumes) and Wild Grass, and Lao She's Four Generations Under One Roof series and the boxed set of Lao She's Classic Works (10 volumes), while its author resources are concentrated on figures such as Zhang Henshui, Lu Xun, Lao She and Sima Qian. Its publishing character lies in solid editorial work on culture-and-history source texts and in issuing famous authors' works in sets, balancing the readability of individual texts with the systematic presentation of complete collections for focused reading and collecting. Beyond these directions, public information on the press's contemporary original publishing is limited, so it is not elaborated here.
