Charles Pellegrino says he wil correct a story in his book contested by Mr Corliss family. The book “The Last Train from Hiroshima,” published by Henry Holt in January, says it reveals an accidend about the atom bobm that killed and irradiated people. Part of the book and the details were told and based on the stories of Joseph Fuoco. He was a last minute subsitute on an observation plane that was told to excort Enola Gay. Fuoco died the January of 2008 in Westbury, New York. Mr. Corliss died in 1999, and some members of his family kept on to documents for his participation in the flight. Also they still have a medal form President Truman. The bom blast was killed about 70,000 people. The book rose to number 24 on the list of hardcover nonfictuion for the New York Times.
I think it was a good idea to write about some of the survivors’ stories. To hear what actually went on during those times, and the different veiws from the ones who did survive. I think that younger people aren’t really interested in things like this. But it is amazing to hear what the people that were actually there have to say about it.
