SynopsisWounded Tiger is the compelling true story of Mitsuo Fuchida, the Japanese pilot who led the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II. Fuming with a hatred for Americans and a strong sense of national and racial pride, Fuchida allows an intense passion and determination to lead him through the ranks of the Japanese Navy and reaches a position he always knew he would achieve. Jake DeShazer joins the U.S. Army as a bombardier, burning with vengeance after the attack on Pearl Harbor. He becomes a POW for years, battling insanity in solitary confinement, until he discovers the secret for change. The Covells, an American family of missionaries in Japan, flees the country to the Philippines. When they do, the oldest daughter, Peggy, becomes intertwined with someone unexpected, and unknowingly impacts the course of his life forever. Three seemingly unrelated wartime narratives come together in this well-researched, incredibly thorough fictional historical account of the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Witness the story unfold before, during, and after the attack, and see the true impact of this infamous event in world history. This expanded second edition includes over 250 rare historical photographs, maps and images., Second EditionWounded Tiger is the compelling true story of the Japanese pilot Mitsio Fuchida, who led the attack on Pearl Harbor, who loved Japan and despised America, who lived for revenge, but who ultimately came to peace with himself and with his enemies. This expanded second edition includes over 250 rare historical photographs, maps and images.

Only a true story like this can be so amazing!
This book is an amazing true account of the lives of several individuals. It’s loaded with actual photos and written in such a fashion that it’s a very easy read. I wish this would come out in theaters which I believe the author intend(ed) but in typical Hollywood fashion, they wanted to modify it to the point the accounts no longer stay on track.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Another warrior deceived by his government.
Three individual stories are woven over the years during WWII. Near the end, Bennett ties these individuals together in what any logical person would recognize as fiction ....except it’s not. The complete fabric is wonderfully beautiful, totally unexpected. I was left satisfied with the final act. Lee DouglasBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
