The story of the worst natural disaster of the twentieth century: the earthquakes, fires, and tsunamis of September 1923 that destroyed Yokohama and most of Tokyo and killed 140,000 people during two days of horror. Piecing together a minute-by-minute account, journalist Hammer re-creates harrowing scenes of death, escape, and rescue. He also places the tumultuous events in the context of history and demonstrates how they set Japan on a path to even greater tragedy: the massive, American-led relief effort seemed to promise a bright new era in U.S.-Japanese relations, but, Hammer asserts, the calamity led in fact to a hardening of racist attitudes in both Japan and the United States, and drove Japan into the hands of radical militarists with imperial ambitions.--From publisher description.Binding Type: Paperback

Works well
A bit small, but works well to keep my 3 remotes and other small items organized on my side table.

Nice but Could be better
This is a nice product to house all you remotes in one spot on the night table next to a bed or where ever you keep remotes. For the most part this remote control holder is sturdy, attractive and convenient. I has two levels but is lacking a separator on each level to prob your remotes up and keep them from sliding sideways. So, I would recommend the ability to put "remote control" dividers, perhaps somehow adjustable, where you could slide the divider to the width of each respective remote to keep it standing up and not sliding sideways that create a "pile or stack" of remotes.

Works great!
I mounted a toilet tissue paper holder on this, and then mounted it across from my toilet. This makes it about 6" closer to make it easy to reach. I also put the remote for my bodey in the organizer.
