Focusing on the transformative period of post-war Japan, the book chronicles the lives of diverse figures, including a journalist, an ex-Navy vice-admiral, a steel worker, a farmer, and Emperor Hirohito. It is authored by Frank Gibney, a former wartime intelligence officer and Time magazine correspondent, who played a crucial role in bridging cultural gaps between Japan and America. His insights and experiences during the American Occupation provide a unique perspective on the emergence of "New Japan."
