Pellegrino has a PhD in zoology and has contributed to many popular magazines, including Science and Smithsonian. In his new book, The Last Train from Hiroshima, Charles draws on the voices of atomic bomb survivors and the new science of forensic archaeology, describing the events and aftermath of two days in August when nuclear devices detonated over Japan changed life on Earth forever.

Using a combination of firsthand accounts of Japanese A-bomb survivors, American aviators, and classified documents of government officials, Chalres reconstructs two horrifying days and their aftermath when the age of atomic warfare was introduced over Japan. The stories of the few Japanese survivors includes a group of 30 civilians fleeing from Hiroshima to Nagasaki where they arrived to endure the second bomb, are heart-stopping. He dissects the complex political and military strategies that went into the atomic detonations and the untold suffering heaped on countless Japanese civilians, weaving all of the book's many elements into a wise, informed protest against any further use of these terrible weapons.
