Sinopsis
Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Mark Obmascik's newest book is "The Storm on our Shores: One Island, Two Soldiers, and the Forgotten Battle of World War Two." The island in question was Attu, one of the Aleutian Islands off the coast of Alaska - and Japan's takeover of this remote island was the first time a foreign power had seized American territory since the War of 1812. The book examines the island, Japan's invasion, and America's retaking of the island- coupled with the personal stories of two men caught on opposite sides of the conflict: an American soldier and a Japanese medical doctor.
