Review
“Much of the material included here has been treated before in other books . . . but the authors's approach is essentially journalistic and they have dramatized the events leading up to the actual dropping of the bomb and the circumstances in which the citizens of the two demolished cities found themselves, and the result is a vivid and horrifying picture. Basically, though, their book is an objective one, and they refrain from making the moral comment . . . which was forcefully presented in Michael Amrine's book The Great Decision.”–Kirkus
