Prologue

Tehran, Iran

November 28, 1943

The President of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, is about to make an important stop in Tehran, Iran. The event was previously kept secret, but has now been revealed to the public. FDR will meet with two world leaders who are allies of the U.S.: Joseph Stalin and Winston Churchill. But amid the grand spectacle, all is not as it seems. The real FDR is ducked down in the back of a very different vehicle, a small, dirty sedan.

Hitler's Nazi regime has committed atrocities far beyond the scope of ordinary warfare. To fight back, the Allies have planned this long-anticipated meeting of the Big Three. The meeting in Tehran represents the best and perhaps only chance for Allied powers to implement a military strategy.

The Pacific Ocean

December 7, 1941

The US Navy's largest-ever fleet of warships is heading toward the Aleutian Islands in the Central Pacific. The ships have been traveling across more than 3,500 miles undetected by radar systems throughout the ocean. Every aspect of the fleet's journey has been planned and conducted at the highest levels of secrecy. The target is a small island of less than six hundred square miles, yet within two hours, the world will change.

FOUR HOURS EARLIER Washington, D.C.

The President of the United States is still in bed when a top secret memo arrives at his desk. Japanese diplomats are told to deliver their final message to American officials at 1 p.m., with no indication of why this time of day is so important. A military action somewhere in the South Pacific may be pending. At 1:47 p.m., President Roosevelt gets a call from the Secretary of the Navy. Frank Knox says that an air raid attack was on and that it was no drill.

Admiral Harold Stark, Chief of Naval Operations, confirms the incomprehensible news. More than two thousand American servicememembers or staff were killed, another thousand wounded. The average age of sailors on the base was nineteen years old. Japan's attack on the United States alters the global balance of power, but it's difficult to grasp the ramifications. Roosevelt needs to speak for a nation that he knows was just shocked to the core.

His speech should be short, simple, and strong. Every word counts.

In 1919, after the First World War, America's sentiment was isolationism; in 1929, the U.S. plunged into a crippling depression. In 1932, FDR was elected President with a mission to save the country from permanent ruin. He saw it as a moral calling to eradicate poverty and better serve those most in need. Hitler and the Nazi Party demanded a return to traditional values and a renewed pride in ethnically pure Germans. Nazism despised intellectuals, urban elites, and progressive ideas like women's liberation.

It combined pride in one's country with fear or hatred of immigrants, nonwhite minorities, and foreign influence. In 1940, President Franklin Roosevelt was
