The Bomb

Bag om The Bomb

""The Bomb"" is a novel written by Frank Harris that explores the development and use of the atomic bomb during World War II. The story is told from the perspective of a group of scientists and government officials who are involved in the Manhattan Project, the top-secret research program that developed the bomb. The novel delves into the ethical and moral implications of creating such a powerful weapon, as well as the personal and professional conflicts that arise among the characters as they grapple with the weight of their responsibilities. Harris draws on his own experiences as a journalist and war correspondent to provide a vivid and detailed account of the events leading up to the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. ""The Bomb"" is a thought-provoking and gripping work of historical fiction that sheds light on one of the most consequential moments in modern history.But already when I thought of the trial I began to grow indignant, for strong as their case was I began to fear, and this was the heart of my fear. The police had already asserted that they had found bombs in Lingg's rooms. I knew Lingg well enough to know that that was almost certainly untrue; he would never have implicated Ida in his crime. From the description of the place, too, where he had been captured, I knew that he had been trapped in his little carpenter's workshop, and bombs would have been discovered there if anywhere.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
