Annotated Bibliography
Source 1:
Doerr, Paul W. "Pearl Harbor." World Book Student. World Book, n.d. Web. 29 Nov. 2012. This is a detailed written source all about Pearl Harbor. It is more easily accessed than some of my other sources, because it is online. It will help me with my project because it has video, audio, and lots of information in the article.
Source 2:
Dougherty, Steve. Pearl Harbor: The U.S. Enters World War II. New York: Franklin Watts, 2010. Print. This source is about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the retaliation of the U.S. soldiers and sailors that fought back, and the medical personnel and rescuers that saved lives and helped the wounded by rescuing people after the attack. This is relevant to my project because it shows cause and effect of the attack, and it also lists the resources it used at the end, which can be helpful if I need to check the reliability of the book.
Source 3:
Fitzgerald, Stephanie. Pearl Harbor: Day of Infamy. Minneapolis, MN: Compass Point, 2006. Print. I chose this source because it has more images than other sources I found, and it is helpful to have a visual of what you're doing a project on. It is relevant to my project because it has lots of useful images, detailed information, and timelines.
Source 4:
Rice, Earle, Jr. The Bombing of Pearl Harbor. San Diego, CA: Lucent, 2001. Print. This source is about the causes of the Pearl Harbor bombing and the people involved, and everything that was happening before, after, and during the attack. It has timelines, helpful diagrams, and thorough information that will be a big contributor to my project.
Source 5:
Richardson, K. D. Reflections of Pearl Harbor: An Oral History of December 7, 1941. Westport, CT: Praeger, 2005. Print. I used this source because it was definitely a necessity to have primary sources in my project, because they give you the most reliable, fresh account of certain events. The entire book is oral accounts of people’s experiences during Pearl Harbor.
Source 6:
Ward, Geoffrey C., and Ken Burns. The War: An Intimate History. New York: Random House, 2007. Print. This is the longest source in my bibliography, because it is a thick book with all things World War II. It has sections about Pearl Harbor, which is definitely relevant to my project. It has names, captioned pictures, and detailed information on World War II.
Source 7:
Whiting, Jim. The Story of the Attack on Pearl Harbor. Hockessin, DE: Mitchell Lane, 2006. Print. This book is a good source because it has basic information about the event, which is important when starting a project. It has timelines and organized chapters which are very helpful to my research. My project will benefit from this book because I need to start with simple ideas about Pearl Harbor before I get into the more specific parts of the event.

Johnson, Brad. Remembering Pearl Harbor. 2001. Interactive Map. National GeographicWeb. 29 Oct 2012. <http://education.nationalgeographic.com/education/multimedia/interactive/pearl-harbor/?ar_a=1>.
This website had a very informative timeline about all the events that happened on the day of the Pearl Harbor Attack. This resource was used by my class in an assignment a few years ago, so I know it is credible because our teacher wouldn’t have shown it to us otherwise. The information is all facts, and has little bias, other than the firsthand accounts by people who were actually there. The information is recent and meaningful to my topic, because it has stories of people saving the day, chilling messages from the harbor, and quotes from veterans about the horror that took place. This source was made to inform people about the specifics that happened at Pearl Harbor, and what happened in order throughout the day. The source is most likely meant for school students, or adults interested in American History. National Geographic is a famous and reliable source, and the credits are thorough and believable.
Source 9:
"Pearl Harbor, Oahu." Pearl Harbor, Oahu. n. page. Web. 29 Oct. 2012. <http://www.pearlharboroahu.com/after.htm>.
The Pearl Harbor website has everything from tours and photos to the history of the attack itself. It describes what happened after the attack, which other sources don’t do. There is no citation on the website of where they got the information, but I would trust its credibility because it is the main website for Pearl Harbor. The source was made to inform people about tours and give a substantial but brief background of why Pearl Harbor is significant. The audience would most likely be tourists and people brushing up on their U.S. history. The information is relevant and only important facts. It has an article about the actual attack, then after the attack, and then it goes into detail about who was involved. There is information about why the U.S. was unprepared, the Japanese internment camps, and the heroes and nemeses within the attack.
Source 10:
Doerr, Paul W. "Pearl Harbor." World Book Student. World Book, 2012. Web. 30 Oct. 2012.
This source is trustworthy because it is on the library databases, and I would trust its accuracy over all the other sources, but it wouldn’t matter either way, because the information is the same with the Pearl Harbor Tour website, and the Nat. Geo. Timeline. It is definitely current enough; it was dated 2012. It is relevant because it says important things about what happened in the attack, such as the Japanese bombers setting off at the same time U.S. and Japanese diplomats were meeting. The article comes with a citation you can paste into your report, and you can know who the author is that wrote it. The article was created to help and inform students with reports to get correct information, because the author has reliable credentials that are factual and unbiased. The facts are relevant to the topic, and to my own questions and ideas.
