Books - Good friends Once upon a time in Quang Tri

The memoir "A Time in Quang Tri" by Senior Lieutenant General, Doctor Nguyen Huy Hieu (published by the People's Army Publishing House, written by Colonel Le Hai Trieu) is an outstanding work about war, recording emotional memories of a difficult but also heroic period of the land of Quang Tri.

Through more than 500 pages, the author takes readers back to the fierce war years, where gunfire and smoke echoed throughout the battlefields of Route 9, Khe Sanh and many other historical sites. The pages not only reflect the fierceness of war, but also honor the resilient and indomitable spirit of the army and people of Quang Tri .

As a soldier who directly participated in combat and commanded many battles, Senior Lieutenant General Nguyen Huy Hieu recorded his happy and sad memories to express gratitude to his comrades and compatriots who overcame countless difficulties and challenges with him. Each page and each word in the book A Time in Quang Tri is imbued with love for the homeland and country, the noble sacrifice and pride in the revolutionary tradition.

Reading the book, reader Ngo Thanh Dien (living in Binh Phuoc ward) said: “Not only are the pages of memoirs, A Time in Quang Tri is also a journey of profound emotions. For me, the book is like a bridge connecting the past and the present, helping me better understand the sacrifices that our ancestors went through to preserve every inch of sacred land of the Fatherland.”

Years pass, the country is moving forward rapidly but history is always there, shining brightly. The nights of marching in the smoke and fire, the days of hiding deep in the motherland to hide from the enemy, the silent moments, holding one’s breath waiting for the enemy to come as if the heart and time stopped… All are recreated realistically, distilled, simple and vividly.

A Time in Quang Tri is not only a tribute to those who heroically sacrificed, but also a call to today's young generation. In the context of a rapidly developing country, the author emphasizes that the lessons of will, revolutionary determination and the spirit of victory still remain valuable. What happened on the legendary land of Quang Tri is a part of history, the strength for each person to build and protect the Fatherland. The work is a realistic picture of life during the war but also a symphony of peace , arousing national pride and love for the homeland and country.
