Drawing on interviews with hundreds of survivors — sailors scrambling from their bunks, pilots racing to their planes, civilians watching the sky fill with enemy aircraft — Lord chronicles the chaos, heroism, and tragedy of the single event that propelled the United States into the Second World War. The narrative unfolds in real time, weaving together dozens of individual perspectives into a panoramic portrait of a nation caught catastrophically off guard.\n\nFirst published in 1957, Day of Infamy is widely regarded as the definitive popular account of the Pearl Harbor attack, a landmark of American military history writing that set the standard for narrative non-fiction in the post-war era. Lord's prose is precise yet propulsive, transforming archival research and oral testimony into a story that reads with the tension of a thriller. A foundational text for anyone seeking to understand how a single morning reshaped the course of the twentieth century, it leaves the reader asking one haunting question: how was it ever allowed to happen?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49161021456603,"sku":"2026100010040-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/eb262f4a-0700-4fc1-9a0c-bf30c1baddc8.png?v=1787189241","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100010040-secondhand-day-of-infamy","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
