This review is from: America Attacks Japan: The Invasion That Never Was (Hardcover)
Professor Maga once again proves himself the master of the history of US-Japan relations with this study of the planning (on both sides) of what would have been the climactic battle of World War II. His efforts to discuss both the Japanese and American plans uncovers some interesting variations on some commonly held beliefs about the invasion, such as the American estimate of casulties or the Japanese willingness to fight to the end. I don't think his tale of the explosive-laden little clay pots that Japanese children were supposed to offer to American GIs and then use to kill the soldier and themselves will ever leave me.

A fine effort that deserves a place on the shelves of every student of World War II. It provides answers to some important questions that have gone unanswered for too long.
