80 Years of Memories of Life in Hawaii and Beyond
あらすじ・解説
There are several underlying factors that led to the attack on Pearl Harbor. After Japan invaded Manchuria (1931), the League of Nations (1933) condemned the Japanese for their aggressive action that prompted their delegation to walk out of the organization. Ignoring all previous agreements, the Japanese government (1936) embarked on a massive expansion of their naval force.
In December 1937, while escorting American oil tankers along the Yangtze River, Japanese aircraft sank the USS Panay. Although there was no retaliation, the US State Department made a strong protest. In 1938, Japan closed its "Open Door" policy, prompting the US to renounce its trade treaty with Japan and placed an embargo on metal exports to Japan. In May 1940, with tensions rising throughout the Pacific, Pearl Harbor became the main Pacific base for the US fleet. In July 1941, the US placed an embargo on all strategic exports to Japan and froze Japan's assets in the US.
While WWII stories are a big part of this audiobook, there are many other events, places, and people that are brought to life in this autobiography.
