How did Japan and the United States end up at war
on December 7, 1941? What American decisions might
have provoked the Japanese decision to attack Pearl Harbor?
In this classic study of the run up to World War II, Utley
examines the ways domestic politics shaped America's
response to Japanese moves in the Pacific.

Industry Reviews
"Clearly and forcefully written." - American Historical Review; "A concise, well-written overview of those controversial years." - Journal of American History; "Utley argues that the path to war was laid in the years before 1940, when American foreign policy 'managers' could not see that their apparently moderate actions condemning Japan - from verbal protests to 'moral' embargoes - essentially precluded accommodation with Tokyo.... The result was an almost classical tragedy... succinct and compelling." - Journal of Asian Studies; Jonathan G. Utley"
