Later this month on the 22nd of November Da Capo Press will release the latest of Stephen Harding’s books, Dawn of Infamy. It’s no coincidence that its release is just prior to the 75th anniversary of Pearl Harbor. The book covers an American cargo steamer, the Cynthia Olson. The ship was loaded with lumber on its way from Tacoma to Honolulu early on December 7th, 1941 when Japanese submarine I-26 took aim and fired on the ship approximately 300 miles west of the California coast. The timing of the attack was meant to coincide with the attack on Pearl Harbor. It’s reasoned that the Cynthia Olson was the first casualty of the Japanese attack on America. Steve does a wonderful job again of laying out the history of the ship, telling the story of her men and their fate.
Steve will be attending the 75th anniversary events on the USS ARIZONA on December 7th, and has a planned appearance on December 8th at the Barnes and Noble in Honolulu. Below you will see the text from his Facebook ad, and other dates and times for appearances in the D.C. area.
Congratulations Steve on another well done book! Can’t wait to see what comes next.
