December 7, 1941: One of those rare days in world history that people remember exactly where they were, what they were doing, and how they felt when they heard the news. In SEVEN DAYS OF INFAMY, historian Nicholas Best uses fascinating individual perspectives to relate the story of Japan’s momentous attack on Pearl Harbor and its global repercussions in tense, dramatic style. But he also takes readers on an unprecedented journey through the days surrounding the attack, providing a snapshot of figures around the world --- from Ernest Hemingway on the road in Texas to Jack Kennedy playing touch football in Washington.
