272 pages, 2 plates, map endpapers, cloth, dj, very good. From the publisher: Granted access to top-secret documents, records and message files, the authors have meticulously traced the momentous decisions that led to the fateful act of August 6, 1955. They have delved into contemporary accounts and talked with dozens of men who played roles large and small in a program so vast that half a million toiled on its payroll and so secret that even Douglas MacArthur learned of it only days before the bomb exploded. The story, of what happened in Hiroshima itself is told in the words of men and women who were there when it happened and whose experiences have never before been recorded. Here also is the tragic game of blindman's bluff played out by certain dedicated men in both the United States and Japan - men who sought, to late, to end the war before the bomb could be used. And here is the story of those other men, often just as dedicated and sincere, whose beliefs and actions prevented the ending of the war before the bomb-bay doors of the Enola Gay swung open over Japan.
