Reseña del libro "Atomic Cover-up: Two U.S. Soldiers, Hiroshima & Nagasaki, and The Greatest Movie Never Made (en Inglés)"
"Greg Mitchell is the best kind of historian, a true storyteller." -Kai Bird, Pulitzer Prize-winning co-author of American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert OppenheimerNew 2023 Edition with Response to Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.In this new, updated and expanded edition of a book which has gained national attention, award-winning author Greg Mitchell probes a turning point in U.S. history: the suppression of film footage, for decades, shot by an elite U.S. Army unit and a Japanese newsreel team in Hiroshima and Nagasaki -- with staggering consequences even today.This is a detective story, and one of the last untold stories of World War II, and it has far-reaching impact.Mitchell, author of the award-winning "The Beginning or the End: How Hollywood--and America--Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb" and a dozen other books, including the best-selling "The Tunnels," now reveals the full story, in this expanded 2023 edition.David Friend of Vanity Fair calls it "a new work of revelatory scholarship and insight by Greg Mitchell that will speak to all of those concerned about the lessons of the nuclear age." This expanded 2023 edition includes twelve pages of compelling new material related to Christopher Nolan's hit movie Oppenheimer.The buried film footage was the most important shot in the aftermath of the atomic bombings. How did this cover-up happen? Why? And what did the two military officers, Daniel McGovern and Herbert Sussan, try to do about it, for decades? "Atomic Cover-up" answers all of these questions in a quick-paced but often surprising narrative.Robert Jay Lifton, author of "Death in Life" (winner of the National Book Award) and numerous other acclaimed books, writes: "Greg Mitchell has been a leading chronicler for many years of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and American behavior toward them. Now he has written the first book devoted to the suppression of historic film footage shot by Japanese and Americans in the atomic cities in 1945 and 1946. He makes use of key interviews and documents to record an extremely important part of atomic bomb history that deserves far more attention today."
