Pearl Harbor: The Initial Attack on Kaneohe Naval Air Station by Michael Carra
Most Americans know the story of Pearl Harbor—but few realize the opening shots of December 7, 1941, were fired ten minutes earlier at Kaneohe Naval Air Station. Discover why Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto ordered this critical strike against the Navy’s seaplane base before the attack on Battleship Row and how it shaped one of the most pivotal days in American history. Through compelling research and vivid storytelling, historian MICHAEL CARRA brings to life the strategy, heroism, and sacrifice surrounding the opening moments of America’s entry into World War II.
