All right, switching gears. WI Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto is placed in charge of
the attack on Pearl Harbor instead of Chuichi Nagumo? Why? Because Yamamoto was an advocate of air power, and Nagumo, like Spruance, was
a surface ship commander, in charge of battleships, cruisers, and destroyers.
What would Yamamoto have done differently? Would he have attacked the carriers, if they were at Pearl Harbor, which, fortunately for us, they weren't.
Would he have attacked the drydocks and five million barrels of oil? Would he
have sunk our carriers? I would appreciate your thoughts. That's the plot of the
new Newt Gingrich-William R. Fortschen alternate history novel Days of Infamy, which is the sequel to their previous alternate history novel, Pearl Harbor.
