Memoirs of a Kamikaze
**Independent Publisher Book Award (IPPY) Winner** An incredible, untold story of survival and acceptance that sheds light on one of the darkest chapters in Japanese history. This book tells the story of Kazuo Odachi who--in 1943, when he was just 16 years-old--joined the Imperial Japanese Navy to become a pilot. A year later, he was unknowingly assigned to the Kamikaze Special Attack Corps--a group of airmen whose mission was to sacrifice their lives by crashing planes into enemy ships. Their callsign was "ten dead, zero alive." By picking up Memoirs of a Kamikaze, readers will experience the hardships of fighter pilot training--dipping and diving and watching as other trainees crash into n...

Follow Me...The Hill...To Climb
What do we have in a book of poetry? Poems! This book is for you who know the joys of stretching in realms of possibility, who believe poetry can be sheer indulgence. This book is aimed to satiate you and to help alleviate some of the pain implied in the question, "Isn't there more to life than this?" The name of the book itself indicates that the poems are at least loosely categorized into three sections. "Follow Me..." has poems dealing with the successes and failures, the desires and hesitancies in following Christ. This is by no means strictly a book for Christians; the poems explore what it is like to follow any person, cultural norm, dogma or whatever. Why follow? Why not just be yours...
Japan at War in the Pacific
"A lucid history of the rise and fall of militarism in Japan…" --New York Journal of Books Japan at War in the Pacific recounts the dramatic story of Japan's transformation from a Samurai-led feudal society to a modern military-industrial empire in the space of a few decades--and the many wars it fought along the way. These culminated in an attempt by Japan's military leaders to create an Asia-Pacific empire which at its greatest extent rivaled the British Empire in scope and power. The battle for supremacy in the Pacific brought the Japanese to great heights but led ultimately to the nation's utter devastation at the end of World War II, culminating with the dropping of atomic bombs on Hi...

Memorie di un kamikaze
Nel 1943, appena sedicenne, Kazuo Ōdachi si arruola nell’aviazione della Marina militare imperiale giapponese con il sogno di diventare un pilota di caccia. Solo un anno dopo, tuttavia, viene inaspettatamente assegnato alla tokkōtai, l’unità d’attacco speciale suicida, un gruppo di aviatori la cui missione è schiantarsi con il proprio aereo munito di una grossa bomba contro le navi nemiche. Lo slogan è: «Dieci morti, zero vivi». Memorie di un kamikaze non è una cronaca di guerra, né il frutto di una ricerca d’archivio: è la testimonianza in viva voce di un uomo miracolosamente sopravvissuto alla missione cui era stato destinato. Dopo aver custodito per oltre settant’anni ...
ANNO 2020 L'ACCOGLIENZA SECONDA PARTE
Rappresentare con verità storica, anche scomoda ai potenti di turno, la realtà contemporanea, rapportandola al passato e proiettandola al futuro. Per non reiterare vecchi errori. Perché la massa dimentica o non conosce. Denuncio i difetti e caldeggio i pregi italici. Perché non abbiamo orgoglio e dignità per migliorarci e perché non sappiamo apprezzare, tutelare e promuovere quello che abbiamo ereditato dai nostri avi. Insomma, siamo bravi a farci del male e qualcuno deve pur essere diverso!
