Summary "How did Japan and the United States end up at war on December 7, 1941? How might American policies and actions have provoked the Japanese decision to attack Pearl Harbor? Was America's entry into the war a belated but necessary step to halt totalitarian expansion - or was there a more complicated collision course marked by different, sometimes hidden, national agendas?" "In this study of the run up to World War II, Jonathan G. Utley examines the ways domestic politics within Roosevelt's Cabinet and in the foreign policy establishment - from bureaucratic infighting to the consequences of economic policies designed to sanction Japan - ultimately defined America's military response to Japan's moves in the Pacific."--BOOK JACKET
