Day of Infamy is an inspiring human document and the best account we have of one of the epic events in American history. He visited each of the Hawaiian bases attacked and pored over maps, charts, letters, diaries, official files, newspapers, and some twenty-five thousand pages of testimony, discovering a wealth of information that had never before been revealed. He obtained exclusive interviews with members of the Japanese attacking force and spent hundreds of hours with the Americans who received the blow - not just the admirals and generals, but enlisted men and families as well. In piecing together the saga of Pearl Harbor, Lord traveled over fourteen thousand miles and spoke or corresponded with over five hundred individuals who were there. In brilliant detail Walter Lord traces the human drama of the great attack: the spies behind it the Japanese pilots the crews on the stricken warships the men at the airfields and the bases the Japanese pilot who captured an island single-handedly when he could not get back to his carrier the generals, the sailors, the housewives, and the children who responded to the attack with anger, numbness, and magnificent courage. Sunday, December 7, 1941, was, as President Roosevelt said, "a date which will live in infamy." Day of Infamy is a fascinating account of that unforgettable day's events. A special 60th anniversary edition of the bestselling re-creation of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, by the author of A Night to Remember.
