Features: For the first time, this book compiles the essence of all military art museums in China in a vivid and lively, illustrated format. It not only provides comprehensive introductions to major military events and figures but also offers stereoscopic depictions of exquisite military artifacts. Additionally, it weaves in numerous knowledge and stories closely related to the theme, allowing countless readers to gain a general understanding of military museums through enjoyable and leisurely reading in a relatively short time. Walking into a military museum is like stepping into a classroom of revolutionary tradition education. The heroic struggles of the predecessors on Jinggang Mountains for their arduous and pragmatic exploration to open up the path for the Chinese revolution, the indomitable spirit of Red Army commanders and soldiers who faced hardships head-on and pressed forward without hesitation, and the fearless courage of the people's army that stood firm like a pillar in the flow of history, fought shoulder to shoulder, and shed blood to save the nation and its people during the eight-year War of Resistance against Japan—all are deeply etched in memory and stirring. The exhibitions in numerous military museums are rich and moving, but they are scattered across the country, making it difficult for people to visit them all. Zhejiang Juvenile and Children's Publishing House has organized efforts and meticulously planned the publication of the "Exploring Museums" series, including the volume titled "Chinese Military Museum." In a vivid and illustrated format, it compiles the essence of all military art museums in China for the first time. The book not only provides comprehensive introductions to major military events and figures but also offers stereoscopic depictions of exquisite military artifacts, as well as many knowledge and stories closely related to the theme. This allows countless readers to gain a general understanding of military museums through enjoyable and leisurely reading in a relatively short time. Indeed, this is a highly meaningful undertaking. The compilation of this book was primarily led by several researchers from the People's Liberation Army Military Museum of China, with the participation and support of experts from dozens of military museums and memorial halls both within and outside the military, who provided valuable materials and images, making this challenging book highly authoritative and representative. Due to the tight schedule and limited space, the coverage of some museums still remains insufficient. We hope that the compilation and publication of "Chinese Military Museum" will act like a shining magnet, attracting more audiences, especially young children and adolescents, to visit military museums across the country with greater interest.
