Attack On Pearl Harbor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The review in Library Journal was right on the money. Although
this book covers the attack from a "different perspective", it
makes the Americans look both stupid and boorish. There is, in fact, a definite implication that they were drunk and ill-prepared while implying (perhaps unintentionally) that the Japanese were heroic in their actions. It is true that Ms. Tanaka is writing from the point of view of her characters, but since this is history and not fiction, it may become confusing for students, especially since, when mentioning (almost in passing) that the dropping of the atomic bomb killed 200,000 people, but fails to make a connection WHY this was done.
Fine if you want a feel for the period but not if you want more than a feel.
