Declaration Of War Pearl Harbor
904 wordsIn the movie Tora! Tora! Tora! , the American Naval Base at Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Japanese Air and Naval forces.

Nevertheless, I feel that the evidence supporting the statement that the Americans were previously unaware of the attack on Pearl Harbor outweigh the evidence supporting the statem...

Emerson, in this view, is most often read as a laissez-faire individualist, and radical individualism is usually thought to be his dis...
