Jones, Jr., is a nationally known, award-winning author and military historian, He holds a University of North Carolina history degree, is a retired Navy captain and a former assistant and advance representative to President Gerald Ford.

Recognition includes the Wilmington StarNews Media Lifetime Achievement Award (2012). Foreword by Captain Edward L. Beach, USN (RET. ) Hawaii Goes to War also features some 125 photographs and other illustrations of the aftermath. Some of Carol Robins Jones mother's photographs are familiar army and navy official credits of images taken of Pearl Harbor, Hickam Field, and elsewhere on Oahu, particularly regarding damage and salvage. Some images have been published as "Associated Press" or with official army or navy credits. Each of her mother's images depicts how the impending Japanese threat interrupted and changed normal life in Hawaii. What Carroll recalls of the day of 7 December and for the entire war later in Los Angeles are an exceptional addition to one of the war's principal events. The remembrances and photographs add a special new dimension to the study of Pearl Harbor and World War II history." Amidst accounts of a shocked community living in the aftermath of recovery, preparations, and enormous social changes, Carroll Robins Jones shares her eyewitness remembrances as the daughter of a naval officer and a professional photographer mother accredited to the army, navy, and Associated Press who worked relentlessly to document everyday life. Carroll Robins Jones was seven years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. She watched the attack from Waikiki with her mother, a professional photographer, and younger brother. Her father was executive officer of the USS Shaw that blew up. While her father returned to sea, the family spent the next nine months on Oahu. The Joneses skillfully weave into a historical synopsis of the Pacific War's first six months Carroll's vivid remembrances of wartime Oahu and a family separated by war headed by an ambitious, dedicated, and high-strung mother and her incredible photographs taken for the army and navy and Associated Press. Most of the photos shown are her mothers and most are previously unpublished. Examined are fleet operations through the decisive Battle of Midway, ship salvage operations, civilian defense, rumors, isolation, martial law, restrictions and shortages, impact on schools and social and business life, treatment of Hawaiian Japanese, and doing without. Meanwhile the Islands were flooded with military personnel training or passing through. Hawaii Goes to War adds an exceptional personal touch to the history of Pearl Harbor in the year of its 60th Anniversary. Life in the Islands was never the same again.
