Publisher's Summary

Firsthand accounts from Japanese WW II soldiers, sailors, and pilots who fought in the battle for Iwo Jima and survived. Some were evacuated before the Marines landed, and others were taken as prisoners of war. The Japanese army and navy combatants are given a voice to share their experiences in the battle that coined the phrase "uncommon valor was a common virtue".

Fascinating stories from the men on the other side

A fascinating look at the men on the Japanese side of the battle. It's easy to dehumanize the Japanese in the war; They're known for suicide charges and kamikaze attacks, like so many killer robots. But they were just young men trying to serve their country and get home alive. This audiobook brings their stories to life.
