<u><em>President Harry Truman</em></u>, by August 1945, had to take an<u> important decision about ending the war with Japan as soon as possible, knowing that they (Japanese) already lost the war at that moment.</u> <u><em>President Truman</em></u> had four options: 1. Continue conventional bombing; 2. A ground invasion of Japan; 3. Demonstration of the bomb on a deserted island; or, 4. Use of the bomb on a populated Japanese city. After careful considerations, <em><u>President Truman</u></em>, his advisors, and commanders decided to bomb Hiroshima to make a strong impression on Japanese Emperor, Army, and civilians.

If dropping the bomb was the right decision or not, it's still not easy to affirm. <u>However, the goal was to get a quick surrender from Japan and to do not extend the war uselessly.</u> In that sense, it was a painful and effective decision.

How does the above description contrast with early mining operations in the American West?
Phoenix [80]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The above description contrast with early mining operations in the American West in that the formerly conditions of the old west were completely different than the "beautiful hills, waving fields of grass, prancing mule deer, a glimmering lake . . ." description by T.H. Watkins.

Indeed, it was the opposite. American settlers that decided to bet on the west and the "gold fever," found difficult conditions and economic hardships. That was not an easy time and required extra work to find the gold.

And let's have in mind that many people that went to the west were people that have been suffering from the difficult conditions in the Plains during the so-called "Dust Bowl" period in which drought and the lack of rain killed animals and affect the production of crops.
