Richard B. Frank, author of “Downfall: The End of the Imperial Japanese Empire”
Description
It was 80 years ago today, on V-J Day aboard the USS Missouri, that the government of Japan surrendered to the United States and other Allied countries. But why on this day? Why not sooner? Or Later? On this week's “Leaders and Legends” podcast, we interview Richard Frank, the preeminent historian on the end of the Asian Pacific War, and he answers these questions, details the decision behind using the atomic bombs, and more.
