Summary: Great Chronicle Of "The Day Of Imfamy"
Comment: From reading this book about the attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941 I think that this book gives great detail of both sides of what happened and its aftermath.
Much more than a coffe book, I think that this book is a great resource in which people can learn what happened.

Comment: Hell, is this the way to begin a review?
Pearl Harbor is a ball, a square, a city, a village, a fool and a loop. Whatever it was, it wasn't this. The Camera doesn't lie -no, but you lie with your own eyes . You do it all the time ,you all deny what you're seeing.So how is a film like this going to make any difference? How is one to make sense of history? -To realize that the British pioneered the technique of aerial destruction of a navy in southern Italy, to feel only empathetic emotion without compassion, a sort of thrill, and feel vicariously English-speaking without the boon of truth and conscience to back it up with?
Live without fleeting flag-wavers; America folds its thoughts upon itself, and is blind. It shocks itself ,nightly, and expects sympathy, like the most selfish old man that ever lived.It cries out in the night, and is impressed with the volume.How desperately low America has become. There is scarcely one iota of sympathy or even coherence to which it appeals; why? because they can't even tell the truth.Hysteria is inflation.

Summary: An Act of Cowardice
Comment: When the Japanese military machine launched an unprovoked attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 they proved to the world that they were indeed the flesh and blood manifestation of cowardice. Up till then Japan had never met the manifestation of undaunted determination of another nation to seek not only retribution for a large scale cowardly act but also face the consequences for an unspeakable reign of terror imposed upon their neighbors motivated by an insatiable imperialistic appetite. This is a great book and tries to define the spirit, will and actions of what the American psyche was and to what lengths Americans rise to the occasion. Modern America was never tested. Complacency was not in America's vocabulary as the Axis powers found out. This is one of the best books ever published encompassing events, actions and emotions initiated by a single cowardly and catastrophic military event.
