Description

This magnificent Pulitzer Prize-winning history, told primarily from the Japanese viewpoint, traces the dramatic fortunes of the Empire of the Sun from the invasion of Manchuria to the dropping of the atomic bombs, demolishing many myths surrounding the catastrophic conflict. Why did the attack on Pearl Harbor occur? Was it inevitable? Was the emperor a puppet or a warmonger? And, finally, what inspired the barbaric action of those who fought, and who speak here of the unspeakable murder, cannibalism and desertion? AUTHOR: John Toland is a world-famous historian whose books include: Battle: The Story of the Bulge, Adolf Hitler, Infamy: Pearl Harbor and its Aftermath and No Man's Land: The Last year of the Great War. REVIEWS: 'Unbelievably richReadable and exciting' Newsweek 'The most readable, yet informative account of the Pacific War' Chicago Sunday Times
