Roosevelt watches uneasily as the world heads rapidly down a dangerous path. The Japanese have waged an aggressive campaign against China, and they now begin to expand their ambitions to other parts of Asia. As their expansion efforts grow bolder, their enemies know that Japan's ultimate goal is total conquest over the region, especially when the Japanese align themselves with Hitler's Germany and Mussolini's Italy, who wage their own war of conquest across Europe. Meanwhile, the British stand nearly alone against Hitler, and there is pressure in Washington to transfer America's powerful fleet of warships from Hawaii to the Atlantic to join the fight against German U-boats that are devastating shipping. But despite deep concerns about weakening the Pacific fleet, no one believes that the main base at Pearl Harbor is under any real threat. 10aRoosevelt, Franklin D.q(Franklin Delano),d1882-1945vFiction.98898 0aPearl Harbor (Hawaii), Attack on, 1941vFiction.98899 0aWorld War, 1939-1945vFiction.9624 7aAction and adventure fiction.2lcgft.9613 7aWar fiction.2lcgft.92761 7aHistorical fiction.2lcgft.9129 2ddccBOOK c27793d27793 2ddc4070aABELJbABELJcAFd2021-09-07g29.99l0oSHAAp63104r2021-10-06w2021-09-07yBOOK
