*''Chinese'': 揚州十日記 ''(Yángzhōu shí rìjì)''
''Yángzhōu shí rìjì'', or "Record of Ten Days at [[Yangzhou]]," is a mid-17th century memoir written by [[Wang Xiuchou]] and describing the [[1645]] [[Yangzhou Massacre]], in which [[Manchu]] forces raped & pillaged the city for ten days, in the course of the broader [[Qing Dynasty]] conquest of China.
The book was reprinted in tens of thousands of copies and widely circulated around the turn of the 20th century, by figures such as [[Liang Qichao]], stirring up anti-Manchu sentiment.
