ABOUT THE STORY

Wounded Tiger is the amazing true story of three incredibly different people from different places and cultures whose paths cross in ways both remarkable and nearly unbelievable.

Handpicked by Admiral Yamamoto to lead the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, MITSUO FUCHIDA'S ambition for the glory of Japan ultimately drove him and his nation into utter ruin.

Jake DeShazer, a young man serving in the US Army Air Corps., swore revenge against the Japanese and voluteered for the first American counterattack on Japan – but things went impossibly wrong.

Peggy Covell's parents served as teachers in Japan, until her family fled the impending war to the safety of the Philippines, never realizing the disaster awaiting them. But what happened through her life would leave Fuchida forever changed.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

In 2005, T. MARTIN BENNETT stumbled across rare information about Mitsuo Fuchida, the Japanese pilot who led the attack on Pearl Harbor and who is still largely unknown to Americans. The Tennesee-based author, screenwriter, and entrepreneur, says, “I’d never heard a single word about Fuchida, other than that he was a villain.”

But as he started researching Fuchida's life, Bennett knew he had to tell this incredible story. He said, “If it weren’t true, it would be hard to believe, but it is true.”

The result is Wounded Tiger, Bennett’s vivid, cinematic novel, now published in this new edition. The transformation of these characters, and especially the resolution of their conflicts, inside and out, has resonated with readers across the board, evoking comments such as, “Wounded Tiger is by far the most riveting and inspirational book I have ever read," and "No other book about WWII so clearly contrasts the differences between enemies and so powerfully shows how we are all the same.”
