The narrative examines Roosevelt’s choices affecting deterrence, MacArthur’s failures and later escape from accountability, and the implications of intelligence and intercepted signals involving Churchill. It also addresses long-held British secrecy and unresolved questions about motives and payments around the early-war period.","MACARTHUR,ROOSEVELT,CHURCHILL-  \nTHE SHOCKING TRUTH REVEALED  \nHow

U.S.involvement inWorld War II yet to come out.John Costello's ability todevelop sources is uncanny,his depth incredible.In DAYSOFINFAMY he has made the greatest contribution yet to thedeveloping history of that Armageddon of modern times.\"  \n—Captain E.L.Beach,U.S.Navy(Ret.)Author of Run Silent,Run Deep andThe U.S.Navy:Two Hundred Years  \n“DAYS OF INFAMY goes far beyond the standard accountsof the American debacle at Pearl Harbor....This is goodhistory,powerfully told.\"  \n—Professor Timothy Nafthali,University of Hawaii  \n\"John Costello has produced a major account of startlinginformation ...which will leave the reader stunned.Hepulls no punches.His evidence is overwhelming and compel-ling.This book,above all others,cries out for justice andthe righting of wrongs committed against Admiral Kimmeland General Short in making them scapegoats for PearlHarbor....'  \n—Rear Admiral C.D.Grojean,U.S.Navy(Ret.)Executive Director,The Admiral Nimitz Foundation  \n\"[A]well-documented narrative....Costello tells a muchbigger story than Pearl Harbor's day of infamy—and tellsit well.\"  \n—Thomas B.Allen,Proceedings  \n“Costello's new book sets the record straight on MacArthur'sfrst hours as a World War I commander.It does so onthe basis of thorough research into the primary sources,including some only recently declassified.His book should beready by every American who wants to know what actuallyhappened,both the good and the bad,when the curtain wentup on the opening act of the Pacific War.'  \n—Michael Gannon,  \nDistinguished Service Professor of History,University of Florida  \n\"This book is terrific.I very much like the emphasis placedon British-American strategies for deterring Japanese ag-gressiveness as the central theme in an event sequence thatled to the success of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor.Youare doing a great service to improving the record about astill misunderstood bit of history that is loaded with implica-tions for the future if we still refuse to acknowledge the rolethat intelligence played in that day of infamy.\"  \n—Vice Admiral David C.Richardson,U.S.Navy(Ret.)Former Commander in Chief,Sixth Fleet  \n\"You have made a great contribution to the overall under-standing of Pearl Harbor.\"—Edward S.Kimmell  \n(son of Admiral Husband E.Kimmell)  \n\"DAYS OF INFAMY is a sober informative work bringing
