On April 18, 1942, sixteen U.S. Army bombers under the command of
daredevil pilot Jimmy Doolittle lifted off from the deck of the USS
Hornet on a one-way mission to pummel Japan's factories,
refineries, and dockyards in retaliation for their attack on Pearl
Harbor. The raid buoyed America's morale, and prompted an ill-fated
Japanese attempt to seize Midway that turned the tide of the war.
But it came at a horrific cost: an estimated 250,000 Chinese died
in retaliation by the Japanese. Deeply researched and brilliantly
written, Target Tokyo has been hailed as the definitive account of
one of America's most daring military operations.
