Every page of this book was fascinating. All my previous knowledge of WWII was limited to the European arena. This book was a complete education on the Japan side of the war.

from Presidio Press

Customer Review:
There are so many reasons to pan a book like this, writting, viewpoint, historical accuracy, but this book gets 5 stars in all catagories. So true, so full of action, so sad, so much to say.

This is a book I would recommend for anyone to read. By reading the book you get a personal perspective on the ones affected by the bombing. This edition has an additional chapter, written years later, where the author gives an update on the people in the book. Very good read!

from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
Although this book is horrifying in its detail, it is a must read for anyone who wants to learn more about what happened in Asia during WWII. It is truly sad that as Americans we seem to only focus on what has happened to us and our European neighbors during the war.
