In February 1945, American Marines plunged into the surf at Iwo Jima - and into history.

In this unforgettable chronicle of perhaps the most famous moment in American military history, James Bradley has captured the glory, the triumph, the heartbreak, and the legacy of the six men who raised the flag at Iwo Jima.

From the author of the bestseller "Flags of Our Fathers" comes a never-before-told tale of courage, the remarkable true story of seven World War II fighter pilots known as the Flyboys who were shot down in the South Pacific.

Flyboys is the true story of young American airmen who were shot down over Chichi Jima. Eight of these young men were captured by Japanese troops and taken prisoner.

In 1905 President Teddy Roosevelt dispatched Secretary of War William Howard Taft on the largest U.S. diplomatic mission in history to Hawaii, Japan, the Philippines, China, and Korea.

Writer James Bradley discusses his new book, The Imperial Cruise: A True Story of Empire and War.
