The book “Imprints of the August Revolution in 1945” is edited by Mr. Nguyen Thai Binh , Deputy Director of the National Political Publishing House Truth. This is a special publication, not only to remember the contributions of previous generations but also to inspire and give responsibility to today's generation in the journey of building and defending the Fatherland.
Carefully compiled from sources such as the Complete Party Documents, articles in the Cuu Quoc Newspaper, Su That Newspaper, Doc Lap Newspaper, and memoirs, speeches, and letters from revolutionaries, journalists, intellectuals, and the masses, the book offers a comprehensive, emotional, and epic view of the nation's turbulent historical days.
Not only vividly recreating the major events of the August Revolution and the birth of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, the book also clearly analyzes the reasons for the victory and the historical significance of this event. In the context of the ripe opportunity after the Japanese fascists surrendered to the Allies, the feudal colonial government weakened, under the correct, sensitive and creative leadership of the Party, the General Uprising took place quickly, with few losses, demonstrating the strength of national unity, the strong will for independence and the sharp intelligence of the Vietnamese revolution.
“Imprints of the August Revolution of 1945” consists of two major chapters. Of which, Chapter I “Historical Milestones” gathers core documents associated with the General Uprising and the birth of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, such as the Appeal of the Indochinese Communist Party, the Call for General Uprising, Military Order No. 1 of the Uprising Committee, the Proclamation of the Establishment of the Provisional Government and especially the immortal Declaration of Independence drafted by President Ho Chi Minh and read to the entire nation on September 2, 1945 at Ba Dinh Square.
Chapter II “Unforgettable Years” is imbued with memories, reminiscences and narratives, with articles by historical witnesses, revolutionary activists and artists such as Truong Chinh, Vo Nguyen Giap, Tran Huy Lieu, Xuan Thuy, To Hoai, Hong Ha, Nhu Phong…
Not only stopping at the events of 1945, the book also connects the history of Vietnam's revolution over the past 80 years, from the two long resistance wars to the construction and defense of the Fatherland in the renovation period. Through that, readers not only recognize the historical values that created the August Revolution, but also understand more deeply the stature and contemporary significance of the achievements that our Party, State and people have achieved.
