Información sobre este eBook

Japanese-Americans contributed mightily to the U.S. victory in WWII. One young Nisei may even have saved Doolittle’s Raid from disaster. His story was never told, possibly because it would have exposed how unjust the U.S. Government had been to intern 120,000 Japanese-Americans on the flimsy excuse that they could not be trusted to defend America. This book personalizes that chapter of American history. It tells a story of how that young Nisei's situation MIGHT have unfolded.


Book Review:


"The Doolittle Irony – based on a true story – brings to life a daring 1942 American military operation in Japan, as seen through the eyes of a young Nisei. Author Jim Kelly seamlessly blends his own vivid imagination with his background in US naval intelligence, his historical knowledge of World War II, and his grasp of today’s troublesome debates about immigration and Americans from other lands. While The Doolittle Irony is an entertaining page-turner, it is also serves as a satisfying reminder that no matter how much the world changes, loyalty and love still remain the same." -- Lela Gilbert, author and journalist
