Started "First into Nagasaki" yesterday. It is by WWII correspondent George Weller, and edited by his son Anthony Weller.
Reports Weller sent in the aftermath of WWII, while in Japan. All his reports about Nagasaki were confiscated and never released, on McArthur's orders.
Not until many years had passed, were carbon copies of his dispatches found.
They are presented in this book.

The story starts out about the bomb that took Nagasaki out of the war, but the main story is about the plight of American and allied POWS, and the suffering they endured at the hands of the Japanese.

A much worse experience than allied prisoners suffered under the nazis. Much worse.
