Acerca de esta escucha

On December 7, 1941, the nation of Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and prompted the United States’ entry into the bloodiest war in human history. Americans have long debated the cause of the bombing; many have argued that the attack was a brilliant Japanese military coup or a failure of US intelligence agencies or even a conspiracy of the Roosevelt administration. But despite the attention historians have paid to the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the truth about that fateful day has remained a mystery - until now.

In Operation Snow: How a Soviet Mole in FDR’s White House Triggered Pearl Harbor, author John Koster uses recently declassified evidence and never-before-translated documents to tell the real story of the day that FDR memorably declared would live in infamy. Operation Snow shows how Joseph Stalin and the KGB used a vast network of double agents and communist sympathizers - most notably Harry Dexter White - to lead Japan into war against the United States, demonstrating incontestable Soviet involvement behind the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

A thrilling account of espionage, mystery, and war, Operation Snow will forever change the way we think about Pearl Harbor and World War II.

John Koster is a columnist for World War II magazine and a former newspaper journalist. His work has also appeared in Military History, American Heritage, American History, and other publications. Koster is a US Army veteran and award-winning author.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"I found Operation Snow to be...irresistible.... The attack exacted a terrible toll on both countries and changed the world forever. It is important to understand why that happened. Koster has made a significant contribution." (Admiral Ronald J. Hays USN (Ret), former commander-in-chief of the Pacific Forces)
"To paraphrase Cicero, a nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious, but, as a rule, it cannot survive treason from within, especially when the traitor - in this case Harry Dexter White - is allowed to lead the fools and the ambitious. The US survived. It’s a cautionary tale - the exception that proves the rule." (Thomas K. Kimmel, Jr., former FBI agent, Pearl Harbor scholar, grandson of Admiral Husband Kimmel)
"Fascinating.... What a book! The House Un-American Activities Committee transcripts are arresting in their exposure of White’s duplicity." (Louise Barnett, PhD, professor of American studies, Rutgers University, author of Atrocity and American Military Justice in Southeast Asia)

Must listen

This story reveals who the Soviets have impacted the world events since the evil rise to power.
The Soviets used the weaknesses in FDRs leadership and administration and their influence over the American government that impacted World War 2 and world events since then.
Can't trust Communist, Socialist, Marxists no matter if the are Russian or America's (who are traitors to this country)

History the needs to be taught.

I almost didn't get this book, but it had such great reviews that I had to. I am astonished that this story hasn't made it into general knowledge. I have read several books on WWII espionage, but this book reveals much more behind the scenes information.
I admit that I sometimes wished the story would advance faster, but the ending requires the buildup.

Interesting Take on Pearl Harbor

Does a good job of fleshing out how Morganthau and White manipulated FDR into war, but tries to portray Japan as a simple pawn and victim. Very pro Japan. Anyone familiar with the war in the Pacific knows this is not the case.

Challenges the accepted narrative and rightly so

Amazing how one little man could turn history in such a direction. Satan is not a sleep.

Don't Miss This One

Fantastic book that casts the second WW - and ultimately the Cold War - in an entirely new light. Love the narrator's voice. Short book, easy read. Brilliant.
