Walter Lord
Day of Infamy is Walter Lord’s gripping, vivid re-creation of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on Sunday, December 7, 1941.
In brilliant detail, Walter Lord traces the human drama of the great attack: the spies behind it; the Japanese pilots; the crews on the stricken warships; the men at the airfields and the bases; the Japanese pilot who captured an island single-handedly when he could not get back to his carrier; the generals, the sailors, the housewives, and the children who responded to the attack with anger, numbness, and magnificent courage.
In compiling his masterpiece, Lord traveled over fourteen thousand miles and spoke or corresponded with over five hundred individuals on both sides who were there, creating the best account we have of one of the epic events in American history.
©1957 Walter Lord (P)1995 Blackstone Audio, Inc.Reseñas de la crítica
“A behind-the-scenes story that is utterly fascinating.”
(Chicago Sunday Tribune)“As engrossing as the story of the sinking of the Titanic and more harrowing.”
(Atlantic Monthly)“[Grover Gardner] gives an excellent reading of the text. His narration is paced to the rapid sequence of events…Recommended for all history collections, wherein it can be enjoyed by folks of all ages.”
(Library Journal (audio review))“Reader [Grover Gardner] matches Lord perfectly. He is low-key, deliberate and matter-of-fact, never sensational or sentimental. [Gardner] also handles the difficult Japanese names with considerable skill. This is a fine audiobook for everyone, not just World War II buffs.”
