Pearl Harbor Survivors

Born in 1945, just before the end of World War II, Spiller "grew up hearing stories and watching movies about World War II. This era has continued to fascinate me and is the inspiration for writing this book." This text provides personal accounts of 24 servicemen who survived the attack on Pearl Harbor, with detailed information about the location and experience of each of the men during and after the attack, and general information about Pearl Harbor. Illustrated with black and white photos, this text would be of particular interest to the general reader interested in military history. The author has written two other books on similar subjects and teaches criminal justice. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
