Acerca de este título
American forces in the Pacific faced an enemy unlike any in history. Soldiers who chose death over surrender, launched suicidal banzai charges, and crashed planes into ships. This wasn't madness. It was doctrine.
Three cultural forces created history's most fanatical fighters. The ancient bushido code weaponized for modern war. The gyokusai belief that made surrender worse than death. And the emperor worship that convinced millions to die for a living god.
From kamikaze pilots to the mass civilian suicides at Saipan and Okinawa, this book explains why Japan fought the way it did—and why understanding this mindset was crucial to winning the Pacific War. How samurai codes were twisted into military fanaticism, the psychology behind banzai charges, and the American response to an enemy who refused to surrender.
For fans of Flags of Our Fathers and With the Old Breed, Honorable Death examines the cultural psychology that defined the Pacific War and still haunts military history.
