reading the C source of Emacs

User-agent: Gnus/5.090008 (Oort Gnus v0.08) Emacs/21.2 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600)

I have just taught myself the very first baby steps of C. I want to
read and understand the C sources of Emacs.

Not surprisingly I am pretty lost. What is a good starting point to
read those sources? Is there any recommended order of reading?

Does anyone have any other recommendations on how to proceed? Can
anyone -- for example -- recommend a shorter and simpler program whose
sources are well documented and that I could study as a training
before I try to read the Emacs sources? I am not interested in C
programming in general, I just want to understand Emacs, if this is
possible for me at all.
