Pick up this overview history book today to learn the inspiring history behind Pearl Harbor! This is the perfect book for history fans for all kids to enjoy.

The 7th of December, 1941, is recounted as the most devastating naval defeat in American history. The surprise assault on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese was referred to as the “Day of Infamy” by US President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Like any other war, only one comes out victorious. While America perceived itself as a victim in this instance, the Japanese were simultaneously firm in what they were fighting for. The United States wanted to gain strength by expanding its territories. Japan desired the same and, at the same time, struggled to be treated as equals by Western countries. This resulted in one assault that led to a war on a much larger scale. With the thousands of lives lost in battle, one could hardly pick who the victor was.

From USA Today and #1 bestseller Morgan Rice comes A CALL OF TITANS (Book #18), the eighteenth book in the bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING. The series begins with A QUEST OF HEROES (book #1), which has over 5,000 five star ratings!

In A CALL OF TITANS, fifteen years of peace in the Ring are shattered when mysterious breaches appear in the magical Shield, allowing monsters to penetrate the kingdom's defenses. As Thor journeys north to investigate the disturbances, his young warrior son Guwayne struggles with living up to his father's legendary status—until a surprise attack on the kingdom forces him to prove his worth.

But dark forces are at work within the Ring itself, as a cabal of nobles who have long plotted against the royal family seize their opportunity. With Thor facing unexpected dangers in the north, Gwendolyn must make impossible choices to protect her family and the realm she loves. 

As threats converge from all directions, the royal family finds itself separated, with the future of the kingdom hanging in the balance—and each of them forced to face their greatest challenges alone.

With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, THE SORCERER’S RING is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and monsters, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal.
