Summary:
December 7, 1941—the date of Japan’s surprise attack on the
U.S. fleet at Pearl Harbor—is “a date which will live” in American
history and memory, but the stories that will live and the meanings
attributed to them are hardly settled. In movies, books, and
magazines, at memorial sites and public ceremonies, and on television
and the Internet, Pearl Harbor lives in a thousand guises and
symbolizes dozens of historical lessons. In A Date Which Will Live,
Emily S. Rosenberg examines the contested meanings of Pearl Harbor in
American culture.
