University of California, Merced, Professor Sean L. Malloy presents a website for his new book, Atomic Tragedy: Henry L. Stimson and the Decision to Use the Bomb Against Japan, which includes ten photographs of Hiroshima never before published.
Update, 5/13/08, from Malloy's site: "Since making these photographs publicly available, I have received reliable proof that several of these photos are actually of the 1923 Kanto earthquake. While I cannot speak for the entire collection, this evidence raises grave doubts about all of the photos and strongly suggests that the identification provided by the Hoover Archives is incorrect."
But Adam Harrison Levy on Design Observer discusses some Hiroshima photographs recently rediscovered by the International Center of Photography.
