β¦ Synopsis
December 7 is "the date which will live in infamy." But now Japan is hatching another, far greater plan to bring America to its knees. . . .
The Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was a resounding success--except for one detail: a second bombing mission, to destroy crucial oil storage facilities, was aborted that day. Now, in this gripping and stunning work of alternate history, Robert Conroy reimagines December 7, 1941, to include the attack the Japanese didn't launch, and what follows is a thrilling tale of war, resistance, sacrifice, and courage. For when Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto sees how badly the United States has been ravaged in a two-pronged strike, he devises another, more daring proposal: an all-out invasion of Hawaii to put a stranglehold on the American Pacific Fleet.
Yamamoto's strategy works brilliantly--at first. But a handful of American soldiers and a determined civilian resistance fight back in the face of cruelty unknown in Western warfare....

This is Jack Gilbert's first book since the now-legendary _Views of Jeopardy_ appeared as the 1962 entry in the Yale Series of Younger Poets. Beat poetry was much in vogue at the time, a discursive poetry that rages against things as they are. Perhaps it was for this reason the strict compression of
