World War II is nearly over in Europe but is escalating in the Pacific, where American soldiers face an opponent who will go to any length to avoid defeat. The Japanese army follows the samurai code of Bushido, stipulating that surrender is a form of dishonor. Killing the Rising Sun takes readers to the bloody tropical-island battlefields of Peleliu and Iwo Jima and to the embattled Philippines, where General Douglas MacArthur has made a triumphant return and is plotting a full-scale invasion of Japan. Across the globe in Los Alamos, New Mexico, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer and his team of scientists are preparing to test the deadliest weapon known to mankind. In Washington, DC, FDR dies in office and Harry Truman ascends to the presidency, only to face the most important political decision in history: whether to use that weapon. And in Tokyo, Emperor Hirohito, who is considered a deity by his subjects, refuses to surrender, despite a massive and mounting death toll. Told in the same page-turning style of Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, Killing Jesus, Killing Patton, and Killing Reagan, this epic saga details the final moments of World War II like never before.

  • “Killing Jesus”? by Clark Blanchard
    What About…the Book “Killing Jesus”? By Clark BlanChard Recently, Fox News anchor and syndicated newspaper columnist Bill O’Reilly and historian Martin Dugard added “Killing Jesus” to their very popular book series, “Killing Lincoln” and “Killing Kennedy.” So, from a biblical perspec- tive, what about this very popular book, “Killing Jesus”? “Killing Jesus” claims to be an historical record, not a theological book. Al- though both authors are Roman Catholic, neither claims to be theologians. They write, “We are historical investigators and are interested primarily in telling the truth about important people, not converting anyone to a spiritual cause…. To understand what Jesus accomplished and how he paid with his life, we have to understand what was happening around him. His was a time when Rome domi- nated the Western world and brooked no dissent. Human life was worth little. Life expectancy was less than forty years, and far less if you happened to anger the Roman powers that were” (pp. 2-3).

To say that Jesus of Nazareth was the most infl uential man who ever lived is almost trite. Nearly two thousand years after he was brutally executed by Roman soldiers, more than 2.2 billion human beings attempt to follow his teachings and believe he is God. That includes 77 percent of the U.S. population, according to a Gallup Poll. The teachings of Jesus have shaped the entire world and continue to do so.
