| Summary |
A reluctant nation was pushed into World War II by the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. Engineered by the Japanese military, the attack killed thousands of American soldiers and nearly destroyed the United States Navy. In this book, authors Nathan Anthony and Robert Gardner offer a clear description of the attack on Pearl Harbor, from early Japanese spying operations to a detailed account of the key events of that fateful day. |
