Approximately three million Japanese died in a conflict that raged
for years over much of the globe, from Hawaii to India, Alaska to
Australia, causing death and suffering to untold millions in China,
southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands, as well as pain and anguish
to families of soldiers and civilians around the world. Yet how
much do we know of Japan's war? In a sweeping panorama, Haruko Taya
and Theodore Cook take us from the Japanese attacks on China in the
1930s to the Japanese home front during the devastating raids on
Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, offering the first glimpses of how
this violent conflict affected the lives of ordinary Japanese
people. 'Oral History of a compellingly high order.' Kirkus Reviews
'This book seeks out the true feelings of the wartime generation
and] illuminates the contradictions between official views of the
war and living testimony.' Yomiuri Shimbun
