Lakeland Lecture - Hiroshima and Nagasaki: The Last Witnesses

“Hiroshima and Nagasaki: The Last Witnesses” presented by M.G. Sheftall

Prof. Sheftall is the author of Hiroshima: The Last Witnesses and its companion volume, Nagasaki: The Last Witnesses, "the result of nine years of personal interviews with survivors, onsite fieldwork, and archival research. His work extensively shares the stories of hibakusha (atomic bomb survivors)."

As the 80th anniversary of both bombings and the end of World War II approaches, this is going to be a very special event.

We are lucky to be joined by someone of Prof. Sheftall's stature. In fact, he will be giving a talk a couple of weeks later at the Foreign Correspondents Club of Japan.
