Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - About the Author:Edwards was a naval officer and veteran of the Korean conflict who grew up in Northern California during the depression and WWII. He studied warfare at the University Arthur A. Eof California, Berkeley, and has a library full of history books. He is descended from a long line of veterans; two of his great-grandfathers served in the Union Army during the Civil War, a grandfather who tried to enlist in the Spanish-American War, and a father who served in the Navy twice, once just as WWI ended, and again in WWII. Arthur graduated in mechanical engineering from Cal Berkeley, and he worked in the aerospace industry building weather and communication satellites. Every time he brings home another book on WWII, his wife asks, 'Is there anything you don't know about the war Book Summary:This story is told by a soldier who was a part of the bloody war in Burma, the executive officer of a rugged group of American jungle fighters.

They had never been taught at West Point how to fight their new enemy.After the war, Captain Beltrans is convinced that he should return Colonel Maruyama's samurai sword to his descendants in Japan. However, what he thought would be a routine side trip to a modern country turned into a harrowing adventure in Japanese politics and a thousand-year-old culture. He ended up in an ancient Zen garden in Kyoto, wondering if he had done the right thing by killing enemy soldiers and civilians during the war. Does he get help from his deceased native grandmother.…
