Description:
For Americans on the home front, the twelve months following the ì
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor comprised the darkest year of ì
World War Two. Despite government attempts to disguise the ì
magnitude of American losses, it was clear that the nation had ì
suffered a nearly unbroken string of military setbacks in the ì
Pacific; by the autumn of 1942, government officials were openly ì
acknowledging the possibility that the United States might lose ì
the war.
Appeals for unity and declarations of support for the war ì effort in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor made it appear as though ì the class hostilities and partisan animosities that had beset the ì United States for decades -- and grown sharper during the ì Depression -- suddenly disappeared. They did not, and a deeply ì divided American society splintered further during 1942 as ì numerous interest groups sought to turn the wartime emergency to ì their own advantage.
This is a used book in Very good condition.
