Dr. Prange's manuscript about the attack on Pearl Harbor is credited as the basis for the screenplay Tora! Tora! Tora!, filmed in 1970 while Prange took a leave of absence from the University of Maryland to serve as technical consultant during its filming. His extensive research into the attack on Pearl Harbor was the subject of a PBS television program in 2000, "Prange and Pearl Harbor: A Magnificent Obsession", and was acclaimed "a definitive book on the event" by The Washington Post.

PEARL HARBOR sorts out the responsibility for the Pearl Harbor attack. It deals not with action, but with reaction. It is the definitive analysis of the acts, failures to act, and the mental attitudes that made the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor possible.

"A more important clue to explaining the Pearl Harbor disaster than even the most intriguing revelations about code breaking or espionage." (Washington Post Book Review)

"Logically organized and clearly presented...a useful introduction and guide to the major arguments and areas of controversy." (The New York Times)

Told from both the Japanese and American points of view, December 7, 1941 reveals the diplomatic intrigue, the brutal fighting, the panic that followed the attack, and the disbelief, anger, and determination that gripped an America suddenly at war.
