James H Webb

A novel on General MacArthur's rule in post-World War II Japan, portraying him as a Machiavellian figure. He organizes a war-crimes trial against an innocent Japanese general to divert attention from the crimes of the emperor, whose cooperation he needs. By the author of Something to Die For.

Webb, bestselling author and outspoken U.S. Senator from Virginia, presents a clear-eyed, hard-hitting plan of attack for putting government to work for the people, rather than special interests, and restoring America's standing around the world.--From publisher description.
