520    $a 'Wounded Tiger is the true story of three incredibly different people whose paths cross in ways both remarkable and nearly unbelievable. Handpicked by admiral Yamamoto t lead the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, Mitsuo Fachida's ambition for the glory of Japan instead drove him and his nation into utter ruin. Jake Deshazer, a young man from the US, swore revenge against the Japanese and volunteered for the first American counterattack on Japan--but things went impossibly wrong. And while serving as teachers in Japan, the Covell family fled the impending war to the safety of the Philippines, never realizing the disaster awaiting them. But what happened through their daughter, Peggy, would leave Fuchida forever changed. This captivating, intense, and masterfully written true story of war, defeat, and triumph will change your perspective and may make you question your own battles." -- Amazon.com.
