On December 7, 1941, America's hopes of remaining neutral in World
War II disappeared in the oily smoke that roiled from her
battleships burning at Pearl Harbor. The nation faced Herculean
tasks to strike back against the Imperial Japanese military that
had attacked her. Victory demanded crossing thousands of miles of
ocean, creating new weapons, and arming hundreds of thousands of
young men to fight their way across a series of desolate islands
that a fanatical enemy had fortified to exact the highest possible
price from the American troops. Historic Photos of World War II:
Pearl Harbor to Japan portrays this epic story, using
black-and-white photographs selected from the finest archives and
private collections. From the sinking of the Arizona to
the raising of the Stars and Stripes over Japan, Historic
Photo of World War II: Pearl Harbor to Japan depicts in a way
mere words cannot the determination, struggle, and sacrifices of
America's fighting men as they rose to the challenge of liberating
free peoples of the Pacific from a conquering invader.
