During
his lifetime, Xu Xiake traveled around and conducted
surveys in 16 provinces. He left his footsteps in
virtually every part of the country. In the process
of conducting his surveys and investigations, he
would never blindly embrace the conclusions recorded
in previous documents. Instead, he discovered that
the documentations made by his predecessors in their
geographical studies were not quite reliable in
many aspects. In order to ensure that his reconnaissance
were real and detailed, he seldom traveled by ship
or by wagon. He climbed over mountains and hills
and traveled long distances almost entirely on foot.
In order to develop a true picture of the natural
world, he made it a point of undertaking his expeditions
in those mountain areas where roads were difficult
to travel and in those woods that were sparsely
populated. In this way he discovered many marvelous
mountains and beautiful scenes. He frequently chose
different times and seasons of the year to make
repeated visits to the famous mountains across the
country so that he could make repeated observations
of their wonderful scenery that kept changing all
year round.

The thirty-second day out of Bombay began inauspiciously.
In the morning a sea smashed one of the galley doors.
We dashed in through lots of steam and found the
cook very wet and indignant with the ship: "She's
getting worse every day. She's trying to drown me
in front of my own stove!" He was very angry.
We pacified him, and the carpenter, though washed
away twice from there, managed to repair the door.
Through that accident our dinner was not ready till
late, but it didn't matter in the end because Knowles,
who went to fetch it, got knocked down by a sea
and the dinner went over the side. The ship's captain,
looking more hard and thin-lipped than ever, would
not notice that the ship, asked to do too much,
appeared to lose heart altogether for the first
time since we knew her.
