Have you ever wondered about the lives behind the battle statistics of war? Afterbursts brings together the firsthand testimonies of World War II survivors from both sides of the conflict, a distillation of hours of conversations which offers a rare and unifying history of the trials and tragedies experienced by all participants, regardless of allegiance. Author Lucy Colback spent four years travelling across nations-Russia, China, Japan, the US and Europe-gathering eyewitness accounts of loss, regret, compassion and reconciliation. As living memory fades and war once again reshapes our world, these stories serve as a poignant reminder of the devastating cost of global conflict. With eight decades behind us since the end of WWII, Afterbursts is an essential record for historians, policy-makers and readers seeking a deeper understanding of war's impact on generations past and present.
