Raid of No Return: A World War II Tale by Nathan Hale

4.0

I like the detailed history that these books represent, even as I am a little uncomfortable with the subject and the very American viewpoint. Don't get me wrong, the Very American Viewpoint is EXACTLY what was going on in this country during WWII, especially after Pearl Harbor, so I think it's appropriate, I'm just uncomfortable. I also think the author does an excellent job trying to look at the events in the book from both a Japanese and an American perspective, but it's a really complex subject.

anyway.... great history, very focused on a particular bombing run and what it took to get there and the aftermath. Super appealing to boy history or adventure fans, really complicated story well told.
