The Sunday Times Top Ten Bestseller. In May 1945, with victory in
Europe established, the war was all but over. But on the other side
of the world, the Allies were still engaged in a bitter struggle to
control the Pacific. And it was then that the Japanese unleashed a
terrible new form of warfare: the suicide pilots, or Kamikaze.
Drawing on meticulous research and unique personal access to the
remaining survivors, Will Iredale follows a group of young men from
the moment they joined up through their initial training to the
terrifying reality of fighting against pilots who, in the cruel
last summer of the war, chose death rather than risk their
country's dishonourable defeat and deliberately flew their planes
into Allied aircraft carriers. A story of courage, valour and
dogged determination, The Kamikaze Hunters is a gripping account of
how a few brave young men helped to ensure lasting peace.
