As the editorial writer for the Asahi Shimbun, Take-tora Ogata was a renowned commentator who entered the political world at the end of World War II. Having experienced firsthand the difficulties of post-war processing, he achieved the 1955 Conservative Merger and, while being considered the next president of the Liberal Democratic Party, suddenly passed away. This book, which depicts Ogata's life and spirit, who lived two lives in one, in relation to the turbulent Showa era, and questions the origins of politics, will also serve as a guide for the current Japanese political situation, where quality conservative politicians are disappearing and confusion continues.
