- I would like to highlight the prepared journal of the minister of war from 1914, Dušan Stefanović, the work that is before the readers for the first time. As far as professional literature is concerned, there is an abundance of titles, ranging from "Theory of Flying" to "Survival in Nature", and all these works are the real professional treasure, General Diković said.He especially greeted the present cadets of the Military Academy and Military High School, showing interest for their accomplishments and problems.
The visit to the 62nd International Book Fair was an occasion for the Chief of General Staff to visit also other publishers, such as the Zlatibor District in the "Borislav Pekić" hall, where, finally, a translated work “Karu” by Steve Tešić, a great American screenwriter and writer, Oscar-winner, born in Užice, was presented.
