Cuenta Regresiva: 1945

Chris Wallace

La extraordinaria historia de la bomba atómica y los 116 días que cambiaron el mundo.

1945. Millones de personas han muerto durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Hitler se suicidó y Mussolini ha sido fusilado. Los soldados estadounidenses esperan regresar a casa, pero Japón, el enemigo de Oriente, sigue en pie. Para terminar con la guerra, Estados Unidos planea arrojar una bomba sobre Hiroshima.

Los turbulentos días que precedieron a las órdenes del presidente Truman de destruir dos ciudades enteras son narrados en Cuenta regresiva: 1945. Chris Wallace y Mitch Weiss detallan la dramática decisión de usar la primera arma de destrucción masiva del mundo, cuyas consecuencias fueron devastadoras.

Contado con vigor, inteligencia y sensibilidad, este es el intrigante recuento del momento exacto en que se dividió la historia del siglo XX.
