Hibakusha:

Survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Paperback (206 pages)
Recollections of activities, emotions, and devastation experienced by real people on and since August 6, 1945. They tell their heart-breaking stories to make a point... that it must never happen again!

Hibakusha:

This book's 25 firsthand accounts by hibakusha - survivors of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in early August 1945 - constitute an indictment of nuclear weapons far more eloquent than any polemic. Grim though their stories are, understanding what they went through may well be crucial to averting another nuclear tragedy.
