The late Dr. Michihiko Hachiya was director of the Hiroshima
Communications Hospital when the world's first atomic bomb was
dropped on the city. Though his responsibilities in the appalling
chaos of a devastated city were awesome, he found time to record
the story daily, with compassion and tenderness. His compelling
diary was originally published by the UNC Press in 1955, with the
help of Dr. Warner Wells of the University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill, who was a surgical consultant to the Atomic Bomb
Casualty Commission and who became a friend of Dr. Hachiya. In a
new foreword, John Dower reflects on the enduring importance of the
diary fifty years after the bombing.
