Harper, Stephen. Miracle of Deliverance: The Case for the Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki . London, Sidgwick & Jackson, 1985.
The author maintains that using the A-bombs was unavoidable from a military point of view, calling the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki a “miracle of deliverance,” which was taken from Winston Churchill's expression when he heard of the news. 原爆の使用は軍事的観点から避けられなかったとし、チャーチルが広島と長崎への原爆投下の報を聞いたときに使用した言葉「救いの奇跡」を本のタイトルに借用している。
