Publisher's Summary

The attack of the US Pearl Harbor Naval Base changed the entire progress of World War II, and as a result, it was a very formative event both for the United States and Japan. Though the two nations seemed unlikely enemies at the onset of the Second Great War, bloodshed between them would be greater than anyone could have imagined. The future of the world at large was changed on December 7, 1941, when the Empire of Japan chose to make a preemptive strike on its most feared Pacific neighbor, the United States of America.

Don’t waste your credit

This is a high school level book at best. There are many inaccuracies throughout the book. It is also poorly titled as it is about WW2 in general with very little depth on the Pearl Harbor attack.

Especially insightful

It was a pretty exciting story Pearl Harbor - Final decision is a behind the scenes view of the War Department's efforts to address losses in the separate Army and Navy commands that studied the failures prior and on December 7, 1941.

Thank you very much!

A great audiobook from possibly the best expert on Pearl Harbor's surprise attack and how it converted the world. We like Amazon's always being there for our related and new books needs -- and for other things as well.

liked the audiobook and the report

Much of the knowledge provided was once classified and explains many of the difficulties that enabled the attack to take place. Any serious student of Pearl Harbor should add this audiobook to his or her library.

A Captivating Guide

An excellent audiobook on a principal issue in our nation's history. Need known if you are taken in WWII. Definitively plants to rest any plot ideas about what lead to the attack.

Well done

Excellent job! I was not informed of the deliberate deception foisted on the public by the first "true" Pearl Harbor report. The result of effort spent by Captivating Guide in achieving his mission might be false -- without for the affidavits/acceptance of the various interviewees.

Wow!

It gives detailed knowledge of the actions of the leaders in Hawaii and their superiors in Washington. You get to see how faults, assumptions, and misunderstandings began to the disaster.
