This is also one of the main events in response to the 3rd Vietnam Book and Reading Culture Day in 2024.
Speaking at the program, Deputy Director - Deputy Editor-in-Chief of the People's Army Publishing House, Colonel Nguyen Van Sau, said: Implementing the direction of the Head of the General Department of Politics, recently, the Publishing House has coordinated with the Propaganda Department of the General Department of Politics and related agencies and units to complete and launch a book series commemorating the 70th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu victory (1954 - 2024).
The process of organizing the publication of this series of books about the Dien Bien Phu victory is first of all to inherit, continue and develop the series of books published in previous commemorations. The People's Army Publishing House has paid special attention to carefully selecting to republish valuable books, in which much effort and intelligence have been devoted to comparing, researching, editing and correcting some sentences to make them more appropriate and accurate. The series of books contributes to standardizing many valuable and more accurate documents, with additional notes and explanations to help readers understand when there are different documents.
"The completion of the precious book series on the Dien Bien Phu Victory further affirms and makes us proud that Dien Bien Phu will forever be a glorious victory, arousing aspirations and belief in the power of the just struggle, awakening oppressed peoples to rise up and break the chains, liberating peoples around the world.
Through that, we hope that this book series will help readers gain a deeper, more accurate, objective and diverse understanding of the historic Dien Bien Phu Victory. At the same time, it also encourages scientists, artists, veterans... to continue researching and creating new works and new works, because the Dien Bien Phu victory is likened to a Bach Dang, Chi Lang, Dong Da of the 20th century, so the research and creation of new works on this topic will never end" - Colonel Nguyen Van Sau added.
The book series includes memoirs and memories of famous generals who directly participated in commanding the Dien Bien Phu campaign 70 years ago. These books have been reprinted many times, but still retain their value and great appeal. These books are written with the thinking and vision of military strategists whose names are closely associated with the Dien Bien Phu campaign, such as: "Dien Bien Phu", "Dien Bien Phu - Golden Milestone of History" by General Vo Nguyen Giap, "General Hoang Van Thai with the Dien Bien Phu campaign", "General Le Trong Tan with the Dien Bien Phu campaign"...
In addition, there are studies, summaries, and analyses that clarify the Party's and Uncle Ho's ingenious and wise leadership; the leadership role of the General Military Commission, the Campaign Command, and the outstanding role of General Vo Nguyen Giap; the Vietnamese military art through strategic operations, campaigns, and tactics; statistics, figures, events, assessments both domestically and internationally; and the great support of fraternal countries and friends around the world, such as: "Dien Bien Phu Campaign - Victory of Vietnamese mettle and intelligence", "Vietnam's strength in the Dien Bien Phu Campaign", "Dien Bien Phu - The pinnacle of Vietnamese campaign art", "Dien Bien Phu Campaign: Facts - Figures", "General Vo and Dien Bien Phu", "Dien Bien Phu Victory in 1954 from a foreign perspective"...
The memoirs and stories associated with the relics and memories of veterans who directly participated in the battle; or literary works (poetry, prose) contribute to recreating through details and building character images with authentic, vivid, simple, easy-to-understand language, highlighting the great feats and sacrifices of our army and people to achieve glorious victory in the Dien Bien Phu Campaign, such as: "Dien Bien Phu Victory - Chronicle" (2 volumes), "Dien Bien Phu Victory Stories" (2 volumes), "Dien Bien Soldiers' Relics", "Unforgettable Dien Bien Phu", "Muong Flood"...
In addition to investing in the content, the People's Army Publishing House and Vietnambook also pay great attention to the form of the book, from choosing the book size, cover design, and presenting the content in a modern style, beautifully printed, making a strong impression on readers; organizing timely communication and creating a wide spread nationwide./.
