The Wound of Cold Rocks
Memoirs of Gholam Hassan Nejat Bakhsh of Kurdestan and west of the country
In the introduction of his book, the author of "The Wound of Cold Rocks" quotes the above sentence from Fidel Castro – the leader of Cuban independence. Because in his opinion, the expression of such a sentence by someone who is a seasoned guerrilla in every sense and gained the independence of his nation through this method of war, shows the prominence of the work of our combatants in the western regions and Kurdestan.An Overview of the Book “Forsan”
Oral History of the Ear Cutters in Ilam
"Forsan" has a simple and almost faded cover that looks yellow and is designed using a photo in the appendices; According to the caption, when we carefully stare at its pale components, gradually, we see a group of operation intelligence guys and a number of warriors — some standing and some sitting — appear in front of us as if from the mists of the time. In the opening statement of the acknowledgement, ...A Reading of the Book: “Guy of the Mall”

My magazine became empty. At the same time, I saw an Iraqi coming up from the fort! He had a big and well-trained body; I was terrified! I was confused. ...A Short Review of the Book “Literature of I”
A Way to Comprehend Autobiographies and Personal Narratives
Seemingly simple lines between the two main and sub-titles of the book turn into an eloquent design on the cover in which the three excerpts on the back of the cover express the same content in a clear and explicit way. The shortest and of course the most general description is in the first two or three lines: “Literature of I (Adabiat-e Man) is a comprehensive book about the genres of ‘life’ ...A Short Review of the Book “Oral Memories of Holy Defense Narrated by Mohsen Pakyari”

Electronic warfare (EW)

By monitoring activities of the enemy, from the front lines to the depth of the battle area, through electronic devices and plunderous walkie-talkies, and analyzing their information, the troops of this unit obtained valuable data on position and strength of the enemy; ...A Review of the Book “Oral History of Holly Defense Narrated by Ahmad Fotouhi”
Basij in the 17th Ali ibn Abi Taleb Division
“Today, we keep saying to make the work public and leave it to them; people who believe in the principle of doing their duty, not for their own interest. Of course, there was greed in the holy defense too, but it was greed for the hereafter! In that period, things were done heartily and based on faith, and everyone was looking for anonymity. Many people today say that we are result-oriented, not task-oriented.Book Review: “Collection of Articles of the 3rd National Conference on Oral History of Sacred Defense”

“Mother of Iran”
Esmat Ahmadian Oral Memories, Mother of Martyrs Esmail and Ibrahim Farjavani
In the absolute whiteness of the cover background, it seems the title “Mother of Iran” get its green color from the leafy ivys branch which is suspended in the air, or in better words, by its inky letters, it gives life to the plant to connect the sky; like a martyr who ascends. Such an interpretation with the shocking text on the back of the book leads to notice deeper roots:Book Review:

On ninth of Aban, 1357 (October 31, 1978), misters Dr. Karim Sanjabi, Haj Manian and Mahdian came to Paris from Tehran to meet the Imam. Dr. Banisadr, Mr. Salamatian and Haj Ahmad [Imam's son] was also present in their first meeting with the Imam.

Sedigheh Amir Shahkarami the narrator: we were two sisters and three brothers who started secret campaigns against the regime during the Shah and in order not to be arrested by SAVAK (secret police), we had a covert life during the years 52 and 53 (1973 and 1974).

At this time (Bahman of 1357 – February 1979), grouplets such as Peoples Fedai Guerrillas and Mojahedin Khalq Organization misused the mayhem of the country, storing a large quantity of weapons in their team house. Even when the Imam ordered the people to hand over the weapons to the mosques, instead of handing over their weapons to the mosques, these grouplets built a headquarters and took the peoples weapons and stored them.Preparation of Soosangerd Hospital
We arrived in Soosangard around noon. It was the 21st day of Mehr [1359] (October 13, 1980). The situation of the city was almost the same as Ahvaz, and even worse. There was dirt and destruction everywhere. The city had almost been deserted. As Ahvaz Red Crescent had said, the city was still within reach of the enemy and no place was safe from their artillery and mortar fire. We rushed to the city hospital.
