Images of infamy
December 7, 1941. It was supposed to be a day of rest for the military personnel at Hawaii’s Pearl Harbor naval base on the island of Oahu. However, at 7:55 a.m., Japanese carrier-based planes launched a surprise attack on the US Pacific Fleet moored in the harbor.
Featuring more than 180 authentic photos, Pearl Harbor is a concise photographic guide to this key turning point in WWII. This book covers the origins and military strength of the naval station, Japanese planning, the attack itself, the clean-up operation, and the aftermath. Among the many rare photographs, there are stunning images of Japanese airplanes taking off to launch the attack, aerial views of the US naval base during the bombings, and the destruction wrought.
