Eyes of the Emperor By graham Salisbury is a great book. It as made a grat impact on me and my outlook on history of WWII. I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read stories that can be easily followed and to anyone interested in war especially WWII. This story portrays many great qualities and characteristics that any young man should have, Such as loyalty, bravery, and honesty and other strengths that they can use to prove themselves by using in the real world. The book follows a young Japanese man and his Japanese friends as they go through daily life of being in the United States army. How they are treated and the jobs they get and they trust they don't.

Not only does the book teach you about life in the army but it teaches you about respect for your country and for you family. The book has a strong cultural influence in which it portrays the a message stating that when you leave you family life becomes harder and there may not be someone alongside of you to help you along your way.
