Gordon William Prange July 16 1910 – May 15 1980 was the author of several WWII historical manuscripts which were published by his co-workers after his death in 1980. Prange was a professor of history at the University of Maryland from 1937 to 1980 with a break of nine years 1942–1951 of military service in the United States Navy during World War II and in the postwar military occupation of Japan when he was the Chief Historian in General Douglas MacArthur's staff. During this time Prange collected material from and interviewed many Japanese military officers enlisted men and civilians with the information later being used in the writing of his books. Several became New York Times bestsellers including At Dawn We Slept The Untold Story of Pearl Harbor and Miracle at Midway. Prange's 1963 Tora! Tora! Tora! published first in Reader's Digest and later expanded into At Dawn We Slept. Derived from a Kirkus review: A massive history-- the late Professor Prange chief of military history in occupied Japan has looked into every aspect of the attack on Pearl Harbor--starting with the Japanese side of the story--and leaves no doubt that as his collaborators and posthumous editors write "Tokyo not Washington established Japan's foreign policy; the individual responsible for the attack was Isoruko Yamamoto not Franklin Delano Roosevelt." There is much new material--on such usually neglected matters too as: the Japanese war games used to refine the attack plan; the development of special bombs and torpedoes for use in the attack; Japanese intelligence operations in Hawaii--and American counterintelligence; the nature and function of the overlapping American commands in Hawaii. But Prange also presents the well-known material incisively: the historic March 1941 Bellinger-Martin report--a plan for joint Army/Navy action in the event of an attack on Oahu or fleet units in Hawaiian waters--is wrapped up with the observation that they ""could not have done a better job of mind reading had they actually looked over the shoulders of Yamamoto."" The controversy surrounding what happened thereafter or didn't happen engendered eight separate American postwar investigations--and it is in treating these that the book is most outstanding. Prange goes into the nature of each panel and evaluates its members procedures and conclusions; most he points out illustrate "hindsight at its hindmost." In an interesting appendix Goldstein and Dillon summarize Prange's criticisms of the revisionist Roosevelt-blaming histories of the attack. From first to last--responsible intelligent absorbing.
