From the back cover
In the tradition of Gordon Prange's best-selling At Dawn We Slept, a | major work that sheds new light on the road to Pearl Harbor and alters the course of twentieth-century naval history.
Acclaim for Visions of Infamy:
"At long last a full, fascinating and accurate account of Hector By water, the man who foresaw in detail the war between Japan and the United States twenty years before Pearl Harbor. I recommend this stranger-than-fiction tale to all World War II buffs." -John Toland, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Rising Sun
"Hector By water's life was so colorful and mysterious that it reads at times like an old-style spy thriller. Visions of Infamy is a highly readable I account of one of the most fascinating and least known figures in naval history."
-Ronald Spector, author ofEagle Against the Sun, and former Director of Naval History of the U.S. Navy Department
