Minor general wear. 1990 Mass Market Paperback. 339 pp. "Many books have been written about Japan's surrender in World War II but the definitive story can only be told by the Japanese themselves.

In minute and vivid detail it relates the history-making events of the brief twenty-four-hour period before the Emperor's broadcast that changed the course of nations-and the lives of millions. During those hours-while hot-blooded young army officers were in violent conflict about whether to surrender or not-one man General Korechika Anami Minister of War with his indomitable will and loyalty stood firm in his conviction that the Emperor's word must be obeyed. That conviction led him to the supreme sacrifice sepukku and his country to peace.
