Hirohito Biography by Leonard Mosley
Leonard Mosley presents HIROHITO as the first full length English biography. He used National Archives sources and notes close to Tokyo. The emperor opposed World War II and counseled restraint, helping Japan accept 1945 surrender to avoid total collapse. Born 1901, Hirohito shaped a transition from feudal Japan to a modern democracy. Mosley, a Manchester born journalist, covered D Day and earned the OBE.
