It was a day that will live
On December 7th 1941 the Japanese attacked the United States Naval Station in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
Thousands of lives were loss and many ships sank.
The most famous of these ships-the USS Arizona (BB-39) battle ship, was sunk and suffered the loss of most its crew.
Today the Arizona lays where it sank with its crew members still aboard.
In author David Doyle’s book, USS Arizona (BB-39), published by Schiffer Books under its Legends Of Warfare Naval indicia, readers can learn about the ill-fated ship from keel laying to Pearl Harbor Memorial.
Inside the author provides photos and text explaining and exploring in detail every deck, room and compartment of the ship including the armory, mess, command center and more.
See the ship as it was being built to its final days as a memorial at Pearl Harbor.
Photos recreate the deadly conflict of December 7th with eye-witness photos and how the ship and its crew were honored and remembered.
It’s more than a book about a ship. It is a recounting of the deadly years of the war and the toll it took on the United States. Never forget.
1 Corinthians 13:13 - And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
