Reconsidering WWII, From the Japanese Perspective

Hiroshima, Japan, After Atomic Bomb Hit, World War II.

In Hirohito’s War: The Pacific War, 1941-1945, Francis Pike challenges the standard interpretations of the causes of the war; investigating the true nature of Emperor Hirohito's war guilt, the inevitability of US Victory, and the abilities of General MacArthur and Admiral Yamamoto. Pike also reevaluates the reasons for the fire-bombing of Japan and the eventual use of the atom bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
