Pearl Harbor, a novel by Newt Gingrich and William R. Forstchen, is sophomore Chris Moody’s current reading experience.
The book, which was released in 2007, is a historical fiction about the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Moody would recommend the novel to students. “It puts a human aspect into [the events at Pearl Harbor],” Moody said.
The writing style is also one of the positive features of the book.
“It ties all the people together,” Moody said. “First it has something about a British man down in the East Indies and it also has the people at Pearl Harbor. It relates how they met each other and how they know each other.”
Pearl Harbor is one of two books in Gingrich and Forstchen’s Pacific War series. Gingrich and Forstchen also wrote a Civil War series of historical fiction, containing the novels Gettysburg, Never Call Retreat and Grant Comes East.
