Day of Infamy (Sixtieth Anniversary Edition)

December 7, 1941 was a "date which will live in infamy." In Day of Infamy, Walter Lord traces in brilliant detail 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 on the bases; the generals, the sailors, the housewives, and the children who responded to the attack with anger, numbness, and magnificent courage. Days of Infamy is an inspiring human document of one of the truly great epics of American history.
