Pete Hoyt reviews a Japanese wartime study translated by Kilsoo Kaan. The work purports to reveal how Japan envisions swift South Pacific victories and pressuring the United States toward armistice while acknowledging American resolve and home comforts. It notes Pearl Harbor timing, Hawaii targets, and Panama Canal plans with cautious exposure of Japanese strength.
