    This seller is experienced. The books I ordered arrived undamaged because the packaging was performed properly. The shipping fee was appropriate, as the seller combined shipping for my three books. The books were a great value.

    Our father was on this ship.

    Our father was on this ship and was taken off at Pearl by Admiral Nimitz. Dad never recovered from the loss of his ship mates and the bombing of Pearl. He spent the rest of his life in fear, grief, paranoia and guilt that he was a survivor. I have given copies of this book to both my siblings. The reading and our visit to the USS Arizona gave us a much deeper understanding of our father's mental health issues.

    Excellent coverage of the event; Emotional.

    Because I had a friend who survived the sinking, and he gave me a first hand of what they experienced. I bought the first book to be published and gave it to him as a gift.

    Wonderful solid book.

    There can't be enough said about this historically accurate account of this WW2 event and the dedication it pays to the survivors. Highly recommended.
