5.0 out of 5 stars Great history, great drama, October 12, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Rising Sun: The Decline and Fall of the Japanese Empire (Mass Market Paperback)
This book should be in print. The story of the Pacific War as the Japanese experienced it. Toland did extensive research, including interviews with people on the Japanese side who were involved with the war at every level--from the battlefield to the conferences where the emperor "presided". He has a novelist's eye for detail. The result is a sweeping historical account peppered with fascinating vignettes that show how these events impacted the lives of hundreds of individuals. A long book, but never boring.
