Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Meer over het boek

The narrative centers on the harrowing events of August 1945, when the United States dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, leading to immediate and catastrophic loss of life. Over 120,000 individuals perished instantly, with many more suffering from the long-term effects of radiation. While these bombings marked the end of World War II, they also ushered in a pervasive anxiety about nuclear warfare, shaping global relations and attitudes towards destruction for decades to come.
