Product Information

This Pulitzer Prize-winning history of World War II chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of the Japanese empire, from the invasion of Manchuria and China to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Told from the Japanese perspective, The Rising Sun is, in the author's words, a factual saga of people caught up in the flood of the most overwhelming war of mankind, told as it happened--muddled, enbling, disgraceful, frustrating, full of paradox. In weaving together the historical facts and human drama leading up to and culminating in the war in the Pacific, Toland crafts a riveting and unbiased narrative history.

Very good reading of a compelling story
This is a 1971 Pulitzer Prize for general non-fiction, so anything I say about this chronicle of the rise and fall of the Japanese Empire of the last century would be arrogant. What I can say is that the cd is in excellent condition and sold to me at a price I can afford, the reader does a very good job, and I appreciate being able to listen to this very fine, chock-full-of-information publication.
