The scream of 200 Japanese aircraft shatters a quiet Sunday morning at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Amidst the bombs and the killing, US servicemen scramble desperately to fight back. The surprise attack aims to smash the US fleet so that Japan can conquer a vast Pacific empire. The plan backfires, however. Pearl Harbor unites a divided America, and the nation vows to defeat the Axis powers and liberate those suffering under their rule.
Through iconic photographs, Infamy: December 7, 1941 illustrates the attack on Pear Harbor and examines the moments that led the United States into World War II. It was a day of tragedy, sacrifice and heroism that united a nation; it was a day that lives in Infamy.
