Best of the Book Nook: 'Nagasaki:Life After Nuclear War' by Susan Southard

Hiroshima was the first Japanese city that was destroyed by an atomic
bomb. Not many days later we did it again to Nagasaki. Susan Southard's
in-depth study of the aftermath of the attack on Nagasaki is not an easy
read, but it is an important one.
