Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Hashima, Japan's sea walls give it the appearance of a ship lost at sea. This look is the reason for the Battleship Island nickname. In this title, reluctant readers will also see Battleship Island as a time capsule. Pieces from the past will point to the deserted island's coal-mining boom time.

Includes bibliographical references (page 23) and index.
