REVIEWS

"Beneath Pearl Harbor: Young Reader Edition brings my grandfather's story and the story of the 1,177 lost men to life. Generations both young and old will enjoy unparalleled access to one of history's most famous ships. To all the gallant men, may we never forget their story."

- Nikki Stratton, granddaughter of USS Arizona survivor Donald Stratton

“It was my dream to visit the USS Arizona Memorial, and getting to experience it in person is something I will never forget. This book allows my younger generation to learn about Pearl Harbor without being there. Always remember the people of Pearl Harbor because Pearl Harbor is being forgotten. The stories of these brave men and women live on through us by what we learn and share about them. It is our job to remember the legacy of the Greatest Generation and what they did for our nation."

- Landon Knestrick, young reader and Pearl Harbor enthusiast
