Scourge of the cruiser Indianapolis issue (Asahi Bunko) (2003) ISBN: 4022614277

Stanton's detailed interviews and research bring these stories to life, but I wonder what motivated him to highlight individual experiences amidst the broader military history.

While I appreciated the thoroughness, I found myself losing track at times. Was this balance between technical detail and narrative deliberate or did it evolve during writing?

With so many perspectives, it’s interesting to think about how Stanton chose the most impactful or representative ones. Did he aim for diversity of experience or focus on the most harrowing tales?
