The author, Yoshihiko Futamatsu, who was in his early thirties at the time he was supervising the building of the Railway, provides  an invaluable new source  of historical and technical reference that complements the existing large body of literature in English on this subject.  Futamatsu’s memoir also includes wide-ranging reflections on the course and conduct of ‘his’ war as well as general comments on his engineering and army experiences.
