Description
This "is the story of six people--a clerk, a widowed seamstress, a physician, a Methodist minister, a young surgeon, and a German Catholic priest--who lived through the greatest single man made disaster in history ... Hersey traces the stories of these half-dozen individuals from 8:15 AM on August 6, 1945, when Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atomic bomb ever dropped on a city, through the hours and days that followed"--Back cover.
