Yokohama Burning The Deadly 1923 Earthquake And Fire That Helped Forge the Path to World War II

"[Hammer's] zeal to produce a kind of cinma vrit of the earthquake, in the form of anecdotes and short accounts, can become dizzying in places....But Hammer goes beyond simply recounting the earthquakes aftermath to make a provocative and largely persuasive case that it marked a turning point in Japans embrace of militant nationalism."Hammerman, Joshua is the author of 'Yokohama Burning The Deadly 1923 Earthquake And Fire That Helped Forge the Path to World War II', published 2006 under ISBN 9780743264655 and ISBN 0743264657.
