General Vo Nguyen Giap, one of the main organizers and leaders of the Insurrection, recounted here the events of that historic period. From the whole picture there emerges the vivid and fascinating image of President Ho Chi Minh. These "Unforgettable Days" are indispensable to those who wish to go back to the source of present - day [1975] Viet Nam." --From the introduction note; "These notes were begun in the spring of 1970, some time after Uncles Ho's death. I was unable to complete them at an earlier date. With the documentation that could be gathered and the active contribution of many comrades, you, readers, and I have relived the activates of president HO during a short but very important period of history of our revolution. It was early in this twentieth century that this eminent son of the Vietnamese nation, who had set out with an ardent heart in the thick night of colonialism to find a way to save his country, his people, saw a radiant light on the horizon. A new era had started for mankind with the great Russian October Revolution. Nguyen Ai Quoc, citizen of a colonized county, quickly found the road to national salvation in the new era, that is the road of proletarian revolution, the road of Leninism. More than forty years of revolutionary struggle by our Party have proved that the 'revolutionary road' he chose for our nation was the only correct road to genuine independence, freedom and happiness. It is also the road to liberation for numerous other countries which are writhing under colonial and imperialist rule." --From the afterward.
