The book consists of 18 stories and a selection of photos illustrating the topic of human portraits attached to the sea and islands such as: navy soldiers, their relatives, life on ships ... In the opening of the book, the author group shared on the topic "The eye of the sea" throughout the work: "Going to sea, among the thousands of sacred and loving things; perhaps the eyes in the open sea always evoke feelings of nostalgia. There were tearful eyes off each other at the jetty, quietly looking at each other as the ship left the dock; the bewildered, bewildered eyes of the new soldiers as they looked up at the small island where they were about to set foot; Those eyes were filled with tears, dumbfounded when the soldiers who completed the task left the island, the eyes filled with love. The book clearly shows the enthusiasm of the writer, journalist Lu Mai and engineer, photographer Tran Thanh - young people who come and love Truong Sa with true feelings.
