On December 7, 1941, Americans were stunned to learn that Japanese forces had launched an attack on Pearl Harbor. In this engrossing and extensively researched account, Theodore Taylor examines both sides of the battle, taking a close look at the events leading up to it and providing compelling insight into the motives and operations of the brave men and women swept up in the fight.
I found this book really interesting, its like little stories in the one book. It also puts u in perspectives of the people in the book, which was sorta cool, but all the same concept of course. I would recommend this book to 7th and 8th graders.

my favorit part is when the whole world found out that prarl harbor had been deyastated in a japanese air raid. they thought nothing could hurt this deck until japs. came along. Although the wuited states prossessed to advanced on technolgy such as rador and purple . a top scertecode braker, the information gathered was often discered of misclassified. but once the raid was luanched , bravery abounded- on booth sides.
Great book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Book is a book of suspence and thrills. I still can't put it down! It is sad that the US could not defend Hawaii even after the translations from the PURPLE! The Japenese forces were strong,but very cruel. I'm glad we gave Japan a payback punch."POOOWWWWWW". "WE HAVE WAKEN A SLEEPING GIANT,THE US"!!!!!!!!!
