Editorial Reviews

Review

“Nothing can be said about this book that can equal what the book has to say. It speaks for itself, and in an unforgettable way, for humanity.” —The New York Times

“One of the great classics of the war.” —
The New Republic

“Everyone able to read should read it.” —
Saturday Review of Literature
 

From the Inside Flap

On August 6, 1945, Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atom bomb ever dropped on a city. This book, John Hersey's journalistic masterpiece, tells what happened on that day. Told through the memories of survivors, this timeless, powerful and compassionate document has become a classic "that stirs the conscience of humanity" (The New York Times).

Almost four decades after the original publication of this celebrated book, John Hersey went back to Hiroshima in search of the people whose stories he had told.  His account of what he discovered about them is now the eloquent and moving final chapter of
Hiroshima.

Beware knock off
5 Stars
Beware knock off
Great book, but there is a seller trying to pass a bootleg version off as the mass market paperback. Be sure you buy the copy that shows Vintage as the publisher. The knock off is of extremely poor quality and is missing the epilogue.In my photo, the real version is on the left.
