Pearl Harbor 1941

The battle that began the Pacific War, as shown in our Second World War at Sea: Midway game at an operational level, and in Great Pacific War at the operational level. December 7, 1941, was one of the single most decisive days of World War II — the day that brought the USA into the fight. Six Japanese aircraft carriers disgorged their full complements in two waves on the superior US Pacific Fleet as it lay slumbering in Pearl Harbor. Depending on opposing viewpoints, the attack was either a brilliant maneuver of audacious strategy, or a piece of unparalleled villainy and deception by a supposedly friendly power. This revised edition, containing the latest research on the events of December 7, 1941, reveals several previously unknown aspects of the attack and dispels key myths that have been built up around the fateful day. It's by Carl Smith, a longtime Friend of Avalanche Press, and includes a CD of movie clips and battle charts. Osprey Publishing, 2001.
