Note: This was first published (in English) in 1957, and I have one of the really early paperback editions, not this newer one.

This was a fascinating look at the training regimen and experience of a kamikaze pilot written by someone who experience it. In fact, he had already received his orders to go on his suicide mission when Japan surrendered. It was a really interesting book.
