Pearl Harbor 1941 (Osprey Trade Editions)

This year marks the 60th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, and with the release of a highly successful motion picture in May -- and the likely release in December of the video and DVD -- interest is not surprisingly at an all-time high. Motorbooks International, your exclusive U.S. distributor of Osprey Publishing, announces Pearl Harbor, a trade paperback featuring color maps, 3D battlefield illustrations and exclusive drawings of scenes from "The Day of Infamy". Originally published as Pearl Harbor 1941 (1-85532-798-8) in Osprey's Campaign series, this concise history examines the political circumstances of 1941, commanders on both side of the Pacific, the Japanese battle plan, both waves of attack and the aftermath. Also included is a comprehensive bibliography and a guide for wargamers.
