Seller's Description:
Very good. xviii, [2], 295, [3] pages. Illustrated endpaper. Introduction by Luigi Barzini. Map. Illustrations. Footnote. Appendix. Index. The author came to Princeton from the Darrow School, and became associate editor of The Daily Princetonian. During World War II, he spent three years in the Navy on torpedo boats, including at the Normandy invasion (PT-510). He was discharged with two battle stars with combat commendations. Darby began his career in 1949 as a crime reporter with The Florida Times-Union, then moved to New York. He became the publisher of American Heritage magazine and retired in 1987 as publisher of The Franklin Library. He wrote numerous magazine articles and six nonfiction books on history, two of which were selected by major book clubs. He arranged to have the archives of George Braziller Inc. donated to the Special Collections of the Princeton University Library. Derived from a Kirkus review: The gunboat Panay was the U.S. Navy's first casualty of World War II. The sinking of the Panay along with three commercial tankers occurred in 1937 on the Yangtze River. It has never been known exactly why the Japanese pilots attacked. The author presents a remarkably vivid recreation of the incident: the horrendous bombing at close range, the order to abandon ship, the journey inland for medicine and supplies, the diplomatic and political repercussions. The data is scrupulously assembled from films and news reports (there were foreign correspondents-on board), official documents, and interviews with Japanese and American participants. Perry presents the case for the several theories: Japanese interservice rivalry, an unfortunate blunder, an intentional slight to the United States. Finally, Japan apologized, paid more than two million in reparation and delayed World War II.
