The story of the worst natural disaster of the twentieth century: the earthquakes, fires, and tsunamis of September 1923 that destroyed Yokohama and most of Tokyo and killed 140,000 people during two days of horror. Piecing together a minute-by-minute account, journalist Hammer re-creates harrowing scenes of death, escape, and rescue. He also places the tumultuous events in the context of history and demonstrates how they set Japan on a path to even greater tragedy: the massive, American-led relief effort seemed to promise a bright new era in U.S.-Japanese relations, but, Hammer asserts, the calamity led in fact to a hardening of racist attitudes in both Japan and the United States, and drove Japan into the hands of radical militarists with imperial ambitions.--From publisher description.Binding Type: Paperback

Outstanding Watch — Style Meets Value!
Color: Black Watch-G5010
I’m so impressed with this OLEVS watch! From the moment my husband put it on, he said it felt comfortable, lightweight, and classy — exactly what he wanted in a dress watch. The minimalist design is sleek and modern, and every time he wears it someone compliments how elegant it looks, especially for the price.
The quartz movement keeps time accurately, and the waterproof feature gives peace of mind for everyday wear — and even rainy days. For a watch this affordable, it feels polished and much more expensive than it actually is.
If you’re looking for an everyday minimalist watch that doubles as a dress piece, this one truly delivers great quality and style at a stellar price point — absolutely 5 stars!

OLEVS Men’s Watches Waterproof Dress Minimalist
Color: BlueFace-G5010
I got this watch for my husband, and it fits him perfectly. He’s retired police officer but still carries himself sharp, and this watch matches that classic, put-together look.
The blue face is rich and eye-catching without being flashy. The Roman numerals and silver detailing give it a timeless, elegant style. It looks much more expensive than it is.
The black leather-style band is comfortable and fits well. It’s lightweight enough for everyday wear but still feels solid and well made. The day and date feature is clear and easy to read, which is a nice practical touch.
Whether he’s dressed up or just heading out casually, this watch pulls everything together. It’s a great combination of classic style and everyday function, that’s easy to set up.
