Pearl Harbor Betrayed

Pearl Harbor Betrayed, by Michael Gannon. The true story of a man and a nation under attack is a fascinating narrative and analysis of the battle that would bring the United States into World War II. Gannon is an experienced historian of naval conflict and his expertise shines a bright light on the events leading up to that fateful morning on December 7 in 1941. The book relates the attack from both the American and the Japanese perspective, and delves deeply into the controversy over the competency of the American commanders and whether they were adequately informed of the coming attack by bureaucrats in Washington who suspected that an attack was imminent. This is a book fit for both scholars and enthusiasts.
