It follows roughly chronologically after his European World War II trilogy ending with No Less Than Victory. It was published on May 17, 2011. The story opens in February 1945 when an American submariner witnesses the shock of getting ambushed by two Japanese ships. The story then cuts toward late March and early April, where the novel covers the Battle of Okinawa, the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the surrender of Japan. The first part of the narrative is told primarily from the viewpoints of Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, Private Clay Adams (brother of Jesse Adams, a character in The Rising Tide and The Steel Wave), and Japanese General Mitsuru Ushijima. The second part of the narrative is told primarily from the viewpoints of President Harry S. Truman, Colonel Paul Tibbets, and Dr. Okiro Hamishita, a doctor living near Hiroshima. ReceptionThe book did well upon its release, reaching The New York Times bestseller list on June 5, 2011 top 15 for 4 weeks.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9866451-the-final-storm|title=The Final Storm: A Novel of World War II in the Pacific (World War II: 1939-1945 #4) by Jeff Shaara|publisher=Goodreads |accessdate=2012-01-11}} {{Jeff Shaara}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Final Storm}}{{2010s-hist-novel-stub}}{{WWII-novel-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.shelfari.com/books/17662511/The-Final-Storm/editions|title=Editions of The Final Storm by Jeff Shaara|publisher=Shelfari |accessdate=2012-01-11}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.randomhouse.com/book/164553/the-final-storm-by-jeff-shaara|title=The Final Storm by Jeff Shaara|publisher=Random House |date=2011-05-17|accessdate=2012-01-11}} 4. ^{{Cite book|asin=0345497953|title=The Final Storm: A Novel of World War II in the Pacific|publisher=Amazon.com |date= }} 5. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/best-sellers-books/2011-06-05/hardcover-fiction/list.html |title=Best Sellers - The New York Times |publisher=The New York Times |date=2011-06-05 |accessdate=2012-01-11}} 5 : 2011 American novels|World War II novels|Novels by Jeffrey Shaara|1945 in fiction|Ballantine Books books |
