Pearl Harbor (Ballantine's Illustrated History of World War II, Battle Book, No. 10)

160 pp. "Colonel Barker's book on Pearl Harbor is most illuminating account of the dramatic stroke which marked Japan's entry into a second world war, and temporarily paralysed the American Fleet in the pacific. It also, as a prelude, gived the reader a clear outline of Japanese american relations in the half century leading up to this conflict. Its combination of qualities makes it an outstanding book."
