Originally published in 1981 as East Wind Rain (0-933126-15-8), the 21st printing of this huge, pictorial retrospective examines both the events leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor and the Day of Infamy. Black-and-white photography from American and Japanese archives and personal collections depict military leaders and enlisted men from both sides, as well as the American fleet docked at Pearl Harbor, Japanese bombsight and reconnaissance views, dramatic images shot during the attack and imagery of the aftermath. Color plates depict Japanese and American aircraft, Japanese postcards and post-attack American propaganda. The images are accompanied by a concise history of the political climate leading up to the attack and firsthand accounts of December 7, 1941.
