Re: Pearl Harbor's Missing Aircraft - 7 Dec 1941
Gomen nasai Brian,
There are books which I recommend and there are those I don't. Same said for "Pearl Harbor" books.
Having proofread the Leatrice Arakaki/John Kuborn volume about the USAAF history...I can say that the Stan Cohen book is truely different. The Stan Cohen book is a pictorial history...and as I have a LARGE "Pearl Harbor" library in many languages...it is the largest "pictorial" of the attack in any language. Hopefully my various essays and lists (like the "airborne during" list) in Stan Cohen's work helped.
Another work which I helped REVISE is Carl Smith's PEARL HARBOR 1941 (Oxford, Eng: Osprey; 1999, revised 2001). Again, I hope that my additions help with a tactical understanding of the complex battle.
Cheers,
David Aiken, Dai toa senso kokan senshi: Shinjuwan Sakusen sensei
