Wounded Tiger by T. Martin Bennett
Mitsuo Fuchida, with a strong hatred for all Americans and a strong sense of Japanese pride, was the flight leader in the attack of Pearl Harbor. Jaco DeSazer, a bombardier in the United States Army, burning with vengeance after the attack on Pearl Harbor, gets caught and was a POW. The Covell family, American missionaries in Japan, were forced to flee the country, they went to the Philippines. Three seemingly unrelated wartime stories come together in this fictional historical account of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
This is a work of fiction based on a true story. The author researched many sources to find the complete story. The Japanese felt that defeat in the war was a disgrace. They would rather die than loose. However, the atomic bomb changed their direction and they surrendered. With the war over, the military was left stranded. The "wounded tiger" lost his direction. He eventually found direction in the Bible and found that love and forgiveness were keys to happiness.
You can find this book in the adult fiction section of the library.
