Nathan Hale does a wonderful job at retelling the story that started World War II. Narrative was all over the place and there was zero characterization. One of my least favorite books are historic fiction. Nathan Hale and his fellow narrating sidekicks are back for another hazardous tale from history. When preparing for a visit to the USS Lexington, an aircraft carrier in Corpus Christi, TX, I did a quick subject search at my library for "aircraft carrier" and this was one of the matches. I was engrossed, and as soon as I finished, I went to find out more about these amazing folks in our history!Another spectacular history graphic novel from Nathan Hale. And I did!

Perhaps it is because they are all wearing similar uniforms, but it's harder to keep track of all the names of the characters when compared with other Hazardous Tales books.
I learned so much about this important bombing trip to Japan that occurred before the dropping of the atomic bombs, which ended the war.
Hardcover. Still looking forward to wherever they take us next, though. No one in the armed forced had done anything like this raid before, and none of the volunteers expected to escape with their lives. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941, the United States joined World War II.

Let us know what’s wrong with this preview of Hale combines history, humor, and ripping adventure with each and every volume and this one does not disappoint. That kind of deI've read all of the Hazardous Tales books, and I feel that this is the weakest entry so far. It seemed very broad--I know there were a lot of Raiders, but no men stood out at all.
