Abstract:

Through the synthesis of both the ancient and the modern materials, Yangtze River Annals
comprehensively records the development history of the water conservancy undertaking and narrates the
achievement level of the water conservancy construction. It objectively reflects the experience and lessons concluded
from the successes and failures during the construction. It also fills in the historical gap of the cultural construction.
Through all these approaches, this book makes its contribution to the inheritance of Yangtze River civilization and the
promotion of economic growth over the basin. The continuing compilation of Yangtze River Annals（1991—2011）
has been launched. This new-round compilation covers the transition period of the river management .Therefore,
it is necessary to set down the development and transition of the construction and reflect the profound changes in
river management. During the compiling, we should innovate our notion, styles, contents and compiling methods to
promote the healthy and sustainable development of the annals compilation.
