Huge Explosion!

"Suddenly, there was an enourmous flash of light, the brightest light I have ever seen, or that I think anyone has ever seen. It blasted; it pounced; it bored its way through you. It was a vision which was seen with more than with the eye." These are the words of phsicist Isodore I. Rabiabout the explosion of the test atomic bomb.I really enjoyed this book because it was about World War II and I like to read books about World War II. But, if you like war stories you should try reading the American War series because I think that they are more exciting. But, I still recommend this book to anyone that likes to read about World War II or is interested in the atomic bomb.
