Day of Infamy

De: Walter Lord

Narrado por: Grover Gardner

Day of Infamy is Walter Lord's gripping, vivid re-creation of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on Sunday, December 7, 1941. The listener accompanies Admiral Nagumo's task force as it sweeps toward Hawaii; looks on while warning after warning is ignored on Oahu; and is enmeshed in the panic, confusion, and heroism of the final attack.©1985 by Walter Lord (P)1998 by Blackstone Audiobooks

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Stuns the reader with the weight of reality!" (James A. Michener)

Full of Personal Insights

This particular history of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor is unique and extraordinary because of its focus on very numerous, brief, revealing and often-poignant direct quotations from those who were present that day. The book gives insight into how it must have felt to be present that day. On this point alone the book is a roaring success.
