Description

New York: Little Brown & Co., 2000. Hardcover ··· 282 pages. There are many ways to interpret the Second World War, and depending on your ethnicity, your perception might differ greatly from another. Ronald Takaki has written a book that suggests the Second World War saw victory on two fronts: both at home and on the battlefield. Takaki demonstrates that different ethnic groups experienced the war in vastly different ways. Further, he shows that some of the U.S. policy at the time was entirely racially motivated, using the bombing of Hiroshima and the failure to protect the Jews from the camps as primary examples. This new look at an old war is interesting and provides a different viewpoint on the events of decades ago. 282 pages. NEW BOOK........16 Pages of photos............... ISBN: 0316831557.
