Formula for Death: E=MC2

by Fernand Gigon

August 6th, 1945
Dateline: Hiroshima
Item: Cataclysm...

A city plunged into the fires of Hell, eighty thousand souls blown up or cremated as they fled appalling horror at eight o'clock on a peaceful summer morning.

Hundreds of thousands of unluckier souls - for they survived, cruelly maimed, hideously disfigured, slowly sickening unto death of the effects of radiation.

August 6th, 1945. The first atomic bomb is successfully exploded over Hiroshima.

Here, with all its unspeakable details, is the full story of that day - August 6th, 1945, a date that may have been marked the beginning of the end of the human race...

[Kendall Hampton · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was beautifully written and told an incredible story. Though difficult to read due to the subject matter, I think it has many important lessons and is a necessary read.
