The New York Times–bestselling authors of Miracle at Midway delve
into the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor during WWII in “a superb
work of history” (Albuquerque Journal Magazine). In the predawn
hours of December 7, 1941, a Japanese carrier group sailed toward
Hawaii. A few minutes before 8:00 a.m., they received the order to
rain death on the American base at Pearl Harbor, sinking dozens of
ships, destroying hundreds of airplanes, and taking the lives of
over two thousand servicemen. The carnage lasted only two hours,
but more than seventy years later, terrible questions remain
unanswered. How did the Japanese slip past the American radar? Why
were the Hawaiian defense forces so woefully underprepared? What,
if anything, did American intelligence know before the first
Japanese pilot shouted “Tora! Tora! Tora!”? In this
incomparable volume, Pearl Harbor experts Gordon W. Prange, Donald
M. Goldstein, and Katherine V. Dillon tackle dozens of thorny
issues in an attempt to determine who was at fault for one of the
most shocking military disasters in history.
