Sample Book Insights:
#1 On Christmas morning in 1941, Admiral Chester Nimitz, who was in charge of the American fleet in Hawaii, surveyed the devastation below. The seaplane flew over the fleet anchorage, and the smell of fuel oil, charred wood, and rotting flesh hit him like a fist.
#2 Nimitz was known for his calmness and coolness under pressure. He was not demonstrative, and rarely showed his emotions to others. His most confrontational response was usually Now see here.
#3 Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox was extremely angry about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. He had been a critic of President Roosevelt and the New Deal, but he had been appointed to the cabinet after Germany invaded Poland and war broke out.
#4 FDR and Knox wanted to replace Admiral Husband Kimmel with Admiral Ernest J. King, the commander of the Atlantic Fleet. King had a well-earned reputation as a heavy drinker and womanizer.
