Description:
From Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima takes readers on an up-close-and-personal journey through the relentless war against Japan in the Pacific Islands, the capstone to Allied victory in World War II. Here is the story of the heroic men who toiled on islands whose names have become synonymous with bloodshed, hardship, and indomitable spirit. This inspiring heart-and-gut wrenching story is brought to life by the addition of 20 carefully selected facsimile pieces of memorabilia, including Franklin D. Roosevelt's draft, with handwritten notes, of his Day of Infamy speech, and 6 situation maps. Also features a foreword by Captain Dale Dye, senior military advisor on HBO's The Pacific .
