Features: Between 1000 AD and 2000 AD, three events in China were recognized worldwide as having a great impact and were selected as part of the 100 most important events in the course of human history. One of them was the Long March, which began in 1934. It is certain that scholars from different ethnic groups, countries, and academic fields around the world, when selecting the 100 most important events that influenced the course of human history in the millennium, did not share ideological common ground with the Chinese Communist Party, nor did they view the Long March from the perspective of the history of the Chinese Communist Party or the military history of the Chinese Red Army. People's Literature Publishing House has launched the long-form documentary literature The Long March, a substantial work that took six years of painstaking effort and hardship to complete. It is a comprehensive documentary work on the Long March. The Long March has many unique aspects and stands out among the numerous works depicting the Long March. It can be said to be a book of great reading value in commemorating the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Long March of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.
Renowned reportage writer Wang Shuzeng spent six years meticulously crafting the monumental work The Long March, which was published by People's Literature Publishing House. Wang Shuzeng's The Long March reevaluates the significance of the Long March from the perspective of the development of human civilization. It is the first work to comprehensively reflect the Long March in a documentary manner since the 70 years of the Red Army's Long March. Wang Shuzeng consulted a vast amount of historical materials and conducted field interviews with many elderly Red Army veterans, and many major events and details in the book are disclosed for the first time. In the book, the author promotes the spirit of national unity and the enduring power of belief embodied in the Long March. Additionally, the author recounts many touching stories from this great undertaking, allowing readers to connect more closely with the history of the Long March through rich details.
