Pearl Harbor: The Seeds and Fruits of Infamy

How badly did FDR want a war, and to what lengths was he willing to go to get one? This question has vexed historians for decades.
Pearl Harbor: The Seeds and Fruits of Infamy, published for the first time in 2010, reports on long-suppressed interviews, documents, and corroborated evidence.
In exhaustive detail, this book establishes that Pearl Harbor was permitted as a public-relations measure to rally the public; the official reports served merely to shift the blame from the White House, where it belonged, to the men on the ground, who were unprepared for the attack.
More than any other person, Percy Greaves was qualified to speak on this subject. He was chief of the minority (Republican) research staff of the Joint Congressional Committee to Investigate the Pearl Harbor Attack. He possessed encyclopedic knowledge and had access to research available to no one else. He conducted in-person, detailed, comprehensive interviews with all the main players at Pearl Harbor and with many people in the security apparatus.
"Without name-calling, innuendo, or slander, Greaves simply presents the pertinent, significant and relevant facts which led the Japanese to attack and the political administration to want to cover up its involvement." — Bettina Bien Greaves
Much of this research has never appeared in print — it was effectively suppressed for 70 years. Even the censored minority report did not include it all. But at long last, the fullness of this report is revealed. The result is this monumental book, completed and edited by Bettina Greaves and published by the Mises Institute. Pearl Harbor is a 937-page indictment of the Roosevelt administration, one that finally and devastatingly rips the lid off a case that has been shrouded in mystery for generations.
