Description:
<DIV><B>The #1 <I>New York Times</I>&ndash;bestselling account: &ldquo;There have been many books on Pearl Harbor .&#160;.&#160;. but none of them have equaled Lord&rsquo;s&rdquo; (Stephen E. Ambrose).</B><BR /> &#160;</DIV><DIV>The Day of Infamy began as a quiet morning on the American naval base at Pearl Harbor. But as Japan&rsquo;s deadly torpedoes suddenly rained down on the Pacific fleet, soldiers, generals, and civilians alike felt shock, then fear, then rage. From the chaos, a thousand personal stories of courage emerged. Drawn from hundreds of interviews, letters, and diaries, Walter Lord recounts the many tales of heroism and tragedy by those who experienced the attack firsthand. From the musicians of the USS <I>Nevada</I> who insisted on finishing &ldquo;The Star Spangled Banner&rdquo; before taking cover, to the men trapped in the capsized USS <I>Oklahoma</I> who methodically voted on the best means of escape, each story conveys the terror and confusion of the bombing raid, as well as the fortitude of those who survived.</DIV>
