So I only read the first half of the book which consisted of mostly primary documents or translations of primary documents. I really really loved this book since the author did a good job of presenting you with intellectually stimulating questions but never gave you the answers himself. The point of the book is for people to get an idea of what historians actually do through analyzing primary documents and this was my first real time doing this. Anyway, if you are interested in the politics leading up to the bombing of Pearl Harbor, this book provides some real insight.
