The Rising Sun : The Decline and Fall of the Japanese Empire, 1936-1945 (Modern Library War)
Editorial Reviews
Review
“[It] is quite possibly the most readable, yet informative account of the Pacific war.” —Chicago Sun-Times
“Unbelievably rich . . . readable and exciting . . . The best parts of [Toland’s] book are not the battle scenes but the intimate view he gives of the highest reaches of Tokyo politics.” —Newsweek
“Similar in scope to William Shirer’s The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Toland’s book is fresh and dramatic throughout. The Rising Sun is not only a blood-and-guts action story, it also presents for the first time a great deal of fresh information.” —Chicago Sun-Times
