Review by: Keith Renshaw on Aug. 02, 2009 :
A beautiful story with a very poignant message about the decision to drop this horrible bomb for me it puts into perspective the term used so much today "Weapons of mass Destruction" nothing a terrorist could contrive could come anywhere close to what was dropped on Hiroshima. That apart this book is one of the best stories I can remember go on give it a try you won't regret it
