Title: An Interesting Look At The Events Leading Up To Pearl Harbor
Review: This book is another look at what events transpired before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and how individual clues that might have indicated a possible attack were missed or ignored.This book concentrates a lot on the issues with the Navy Department's Second Deck which caused problems when all of the information that should have been distributed to several commands was concentrated in one person's hands with only his own impressions deciding who would see what. There were power struggles going on within the Navy as well as between the Navy and the Army over who was responsible for what.This is a good short book on Pearl Harbor and is a good read for those interested in the period as I am. It adds a few new items to the discussion, but no major revelations.
Is the review positive or negative?
