〈守父靈一月記〉是蔣經國在蔣中正總統逝世後記載其心情轉折的日記式書籍，記載了自蔣中正總統逝世當日一直到移靈慈湖，以及在慈湖守喪期間的內心感觸，如對父親一言一行的回憶，對父親耳提面命的思念，以及父親死後種種事情對其人生看法的改變，或是誦讀佛經心靈寧靜的種種感受。
鹿內信隆是日本的企業家，富士產經集團初代會長。1954年設立了日本放送，1957年又聯合文化放送設立富士電視台。1968年就任產業經濟新聞社社長。1990年10月28日過世，享年78歲。其與台灣關係良好，在產經新聞社長任內出版「蔣中正總統秘錄——中日關係八十年之證言」，傳訟一時。
鹿內信隆與台灣關係密切，在日本亦有一定之地位，此物足以表彰日人對蔣中正總統及經國先生的崇敬。

The book is packed in a wooden case tied up with dark purple lanyards. The case is inscribed with a brush with the words "Keeping a month's vigil over my father's remains, authored by President Chiang Ching-kuo, published and presented by Shikanai Nobutaka, on the geng-shen day of the autumn." The case's inside has a piece of paper showing words "Seal of Nippon Fine Arts Industrial Company" and is overlaid with satin with red patterns. It contains a thread-bound book Keeping a month's vigil over my father's remains in Japanese, and its front cover and footer were hand written with a brush, respectively, inscriptions "Keeping a month's vigil over my father's remains, authored by President Chiang Ching-kuo, published and presented by Shikanai Nobutaka" and "To the behoof of Shikanai Nobutaka, I assented to offering my calligraphy. Respectfully, Kawase Shindo, November 17, 1980."

Keeping a month's vigil over my father's remains is a diary-styled record of the transitions of Chiang Ching-kuo's state of mind from the day when Chiang Kai-shek passed away to the day when his coffin was settled at Cihu Mausoleum, as well as his thoughts and feelings during the period of keeping vigil beside the coffin. For instance, he recalled his father's words and deeds, reflections of earnest impartation, in addition to his changed views of life and many perspectives of things, and feelings of the serenity of mind while reciting Buddhist sutras.

Shikanai Nobutaka was a Japanese entrepreneur and the first chairperson of the Fujisankei Communications Group. He founded Japan Broadcasting Corporation in 1954 and merged the Corporation with Nippon Cultural Broadcasting to establish Fuji Television in 1957. He assumed the role of president of Sankei Shimbun in 1968. On October 28, 1990, he passed away at the age of 78. He enjoyed a very good relationship with Taiwan and in his presidency of Sankei Shimbun, published the Chiang Kai-shek: His Life and Times, which were celebrated in many places.

Shikanai Nobutaka had a very close relationship with Taiwan and was a gentleman of high standing in Japan; therefore, his gift was sufficient to represent general Japanese people's reverence for Chiang Kai-shek and Chiang Ching-kuo.
