American History Bound Analysis

In American History Bound by Gary Y. Okihiro, he expresses an unpopular opinion about World War II. WWII was originally stated as the “good” war, especially in comparison to WWI which was only a mere twenty years previous. However, Okihiri contradicts this idea. In the chapter that was assigned for class, Okihiri expresses WWII in a mannerly fashion, despite his ideas; however, he speaks more about the underlying facts that are always portrayed when talking about the second world war.
