Long March: Details Determine History
by Compiled By Wu Dongfeng And Zhu Jihong
About This Novel
If there were not those details of the Long March experienced by the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, without the snow-capped mountains and vast grasslands, without those people who were forced into desperate situations due to hunger and cold and narrow escapes, without those heart-stirring decisions and disagreements, without the hardships, dangers and sacrifices everywhere, would the Long March still be so eye-catching to the world, and would it still make us so amazed and moved? When we look up to them with the word "great", they may feel only insignificance and helplessness; when we praise them with the word "glorious", they may only feel suffering and pain; when we evaluate them with the word "correct", perhaps they only feel confusion and hesitation. This book carefully collects and organizes the scattered details from hundreds of Long March memoirs, diaries and documentary works. It attempts to provide readers with the most original, authentic and vivid text about the characters, events, environment, politics, military, logistics and other aspects of the Long March through these "smallest components" in historical memory, and to reproduce the "original ecology" of the Long March.
