A Globe-Circler's Diary From Occupied Tokyo War Scene
The diary describes a Tokyo under occupation with a public bath area, a sparsely used arena for wrestling, and a ruined urban core. It notes mass air raids on March 25 1945, the red light district called the Nightless City, and observations of Japanese life including masks, rail travel, and daily health checks. It also details U.S. embassy sites, imperial palace grounds, Tokyo Station, and Mount Fuji views from air travel as the author anticipates a Guam flight.
