Overview

"America is still reeling after epic events in Hawaii. The legendary admiral Bill Halsey is pitted against the notorious gambler Admiral Yamamoto - who has launched a fateful 'third-wave attack' on the island of Oahu - in a battle of wits, nerve, and skill. Meanwhile, the hunt for the Japanese fleet is on...""Days Of Infamy"" stars an amazing array of characters - from President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, and the two great admirals to the U.S. pilots bravely facing the vastly superior Imperial Japanese Navy. A military tour de force, Gingrich and Forstchen's 'what if' novel is as much an homage to the survival of the real Pearl Harbor attack as it is a bold and thrilling take on America's entry into WWII."
