In early 1942, the strategic situation was bleak for the United
States. She had been in continual retreat since Pearl Harbor,
surrendering major areas such as the Philippines, and was preparing
for the worst in Hawaii and on the West Coast. The Japanese, on the
other hand, had secured a well-defended perimeter, and was set for
further expansion. Something needed to happen quickly and be of
considerable impact-and the combined-arms, April 1942 Doolittle
Raid on Japan was a way to achieve this. This book examines the
planning, execution, and aftermath of this innovative, daring and
risky attack, which would show that the Japanese navy and air
forces were anything but invincible.
