{"product_id":"books-blood-bushido-by-bernard-edwards","title":"Blood \u0026 Bushido","description":"Imperial Japan's wartime atrocities left a bloody stain on the waters of the Pacific.This is a story that might have quietly slipped beneath the waves of history had Bernard Edwards not written this important book. Blood \u0026amp; Bushido vividly recounts the barbaric actions of Japan's navy in the wake of its attacks on Allied shipping, including the ramming of lifeboats, the machine-gunning of survivors and the bayoneting and beheading of captives. As Edwards explains, the ancient Japanese warrior code of Bushido-under which capture is forbidden--was in stark and lethal contrast to the humane code of conduct usually honored by seafarers. Anyone unfortunate enough to fall victim to the Imperial Navy paid a terrible price. Drawing on the dramatic accounts of Allied survivors, Blood \u0026amp; Bushido serves as a reminder of the Imperial Navy's inhumane acts and a tribute to those who perished because of them.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53509751636241,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781883283872.jpg?v=1778166770","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-blood-bushido-by-bernard-edwards","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
