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.

Industry Reviews

"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
