Battleship Musashi : the making and sinking of the world's biggest battleship

Author:	Akira Yoshimura
Publisher:	Tokyo ; New York : Kodansha International, 1999.
Edition/Format:	Print book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	Akira Yoshimura's dramatic reconstruction of the birth of the Musashi portrays a nation preparing for total war. Under these extreme conditions, courage, genius, and integrity coexisted with brutality, folly, and paranoia. During the more than four years it took to build and outfit it, shipyard engineers and their Navy mentors were faced with seemingly insurmountable technical problems and plagued by natural calamities and the constant fear of espionage.

Battleship Musashi is a tribute to the men who achieved this engineering marvel and a testament to the excesses of bureaucratic militarism.  Read more...
