and leaving the macarthur in charge of the naval war. this question of would macarthur have gained a supreme command of the pacific which was his goal and second could he ensure that the route back to tokyo and that he would get the green light to liberate the philippines, critically the northern islands. those were his goals and its dark horse campaign for president may simply have been away with pressure to fulfill those goals. >> you write marvelously early on that the war has changed them and this is the happy war so this press conference used to be one for the ages earlier in his presidency and he would be joshing with the reporters and knew whose birthday it was, whose children were having a birthday that day and making jokes back and forth but that is not really fdr in this point of the war, is it? >> of course this was the longest presidency in american history and often i remember at the outset of our current president's administration i believe it was in washington post it was about fdr's relationship with the press and was abo

satisfying macarthur. so this question of would macarthur eventually be the supreme command which was his goal and then secondly could ensure that her route back to tokyo with through the philippines that he would get the green light to liberate including critically the northern islanders argued as of these were his goals. as kind of dark horse campaign for president may simply been a way of exerting pressure in order to fulfill those goals are unit. ian.rob: time of fdr. the war changed him. this kind of happy more. and to the age of earlier as his presidency. as he joshing with reporters . he knew what birthday it was with his children party was making jokes back and forth it is really not fdr by this point of the war is it . ian: no . course this was the longest presidency in a mark in history . often in the outside of our current president's administration, there's a story in the washington post. it was about fdr's relationship with the press. it is about how clever he was with using this charm tactic

look especially at fdr and douglas macarthur. kawai open the book that way? i will even expand on my question. it is a bit of a risk where you have to know people are opening up and ian toll book and they want to get so why open it with a survey of the u.s. political view. >> military history there is an expectation that there will be led in the air at least by the second chapter and in this case you really have to wait until the third, almost 100 pages into the book. it is an unconventional way to begin a work of military history. my thought was i had latitude in this case because it was the third volume of the trilogy and people were reading it and they had read the first two so they are either committed to read it or not but basically my observation was looking at the pacific war was that there was a a lot of literature with fdr and a lot about macarthur and i like to say there's a pickup truck full of fdr biographies and i don't think that's an exaggeration. there is a large wheelbarrow full of macarthur biographies and two of the most fascinating figures

with this book in an interesting way of politics and it was nicely done especially with douglas macarthur. and i'll even expand on my question. you have to know so why open with a survey of us political? >> that there would be led in the air you only have to wait until the third. it is and unconventional way and i had a little bit of latitude in the case because of the trilogy people reading it already read the first two so they had already committed to read it or not. so basically my observation was looking at the pacific war that there was a lot of literature about fdr and macarthur i like to say there was a pickup truck of fdr biographies and i think that's an exaggeration of fdr biographies and i think that's an exaggeration have macarthur biographies two of the most fascinating figures in 20th century history and love them for obvious reasons so the story of the pacific command which took place in wahoo and hawaii in 1944, that story has been told over and over again because of how frequently new biographies are coming out with fdr and macarthur and featured incident because it was a

the seventh was supporting macarthur. you are shipping everything across the ocean there, everything from bulldozers to q-tips. can you imagine the amount of oil they had to ship? for the tons and tons of ammunition you had to ship? for aviation fuel? -- or aviation fuel? and cigarettes. that's about the only thing you didn't want to ever run out of, cigarettes. the military ran on cigarettes at the time. you had to supply hundreds of thousands of soldiers, airmen, marines. and not only that. the war in europe is still going on. so they are still heading to europe, and on top of that, the russians and the chinese are screaming for more lend lease supplies and we are accommodating them with thousands of tons of lend lease supplies, which includes a fair amount of the food both those countries are getting at the time. because of this miracle of american production, both in factories and on farms going on at the time. that is something that i don't think you want to overlook it all. ok. now for my air force friends. the b-29

he was being monitored by macarthur's operation, the fbi. [inaudible] but at the same time, you don't want to read too much into it. everybody knew what you ate, what you thought, how many cigarettes you smoked every day. but they gave hersey clearance to go to hiroshima for two weeks which might sound pretty substantial. it included travel which would have been 24 to 36 hours at that time. when he gets there, he has the help of a german priest who had been living there and returned and through this, one other japanese minister who had been educated at emory university and therefore spoke english, these gentlemen not only gave their own testimony, but they also made enormous introductions for hersey along the black survivors who had been returning to hiroshima to rebuild their lives from the ashes. later on, hersey didn't remember exactly how many he had interviewed. we will just say several dozen is the most accurate. >> and coming back to something that preoccupied me i don't think frivolously, one of the things that makes hiroshima such a

that definitely helps the cause when you're applying to general macarthur to come to the country.even though hiroshima and nagasaki were restricted topics, and they were really vetting journalists coming and going into japan. percy may had been seen as a relatively innocuous >> a liable man. >> exactly company man still. >> host: so then he gets to china, he gets to japan. i when he gets to hiroshima finally, tell us about he does that, the extraordinary step is that he talks to people rather than reporting on events. how does he begin to find the people that form the spine of the great pc rights. >> guest: that was incredibly important departure. it might seem obvious now to just focus on a few individuals to bring up the human element of the story. but it is pretty revolutionary then. especially what he is proposing to deutsche humanize japanese victims and enemy number two after the nasis because they had attacked us directly, right? so when he eventually admitted to tokyo, by the way he did not have free reign there just because he had been the man comes not really being monit
