Born In 1951 In Mexico City Coral Bracho has published more than a dozen volumes of poetry including her magnificent El ser que va a morir 1981 which => changed the course of Mexican poetry. The prominent Mexican poet David Huerta writes "The secret of Coral Bracho's poetry its prodigious originality can be traced to its tendency to surge like a living voice a silky impetuous torrent." Her biography at the Poetry Foundation website observes "Brachos impact on Mexican poetry has been compared to poet John Ashberys influence on American verse. Brachos layered long-lined poems attend equally to sound patterns and lush unspooling imagery." Fellow poet Forrest Gander has said Her diction spills out along ceaselessly shifting beds of sound. . . . Brachos early poems make sense first as music and music propels them. Bracho's poetry has appeared in dozens of anthologies of the genre. And further recognizing her achievements as a poet are her Aguacalientes National Poetry Prize and a Guggenheim Fellowship. From the famous handpress of Juan Pascoe and limited to 120 copies this => features a cunning cut of an armadillo on the title-page. New sewn in textured charcoal wrappers.

The standard account from the Japanese perspective and a classic of WWII. One of the foremost figures in the IJNAF, Mitsuo Fuchida was strike force commander at Pearl Harbor. Unable to take part in operations at Midway due to a recent appendix operation he watched the action from the deck of the flagship, taking notes as events unfolded. Subsequently, he was one of the few Japanese naval officers permitted to study the reports of the battle and is therefore uniquely qualified to deliver this account. For the first US edition (published for USNI) the Japanese original was translated into English by Commander Chihaya and edited by Kawakami and Pineau; their text is repeated here. Importantly, the Japanese photographs (although of poorer quality) are retained, and supplemented by a small number of well-chosen USN pictures. SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION.
