DESCRIPTION:Hiroshima. Dresden. London. Brookings?\n\nAmericans know the Ja
 panese bombing of Pearl Harbor\, Hawaii\, as one of the most infamous even
 ts of World War II. However\, few on either side know that Japan also bomb
 ed mainland America&amp;mdash\;twice.\n\nNavy pilot Nobuo Fujita launched a se
 aplane off a submarine&amp;mdash\;via catapult&amp;mdash\;and hit the woods outsid
 e the town of Brookings\, Oregon. No one was killed or even hurt\, but all
  involved were changed.\n\nTwenty years later\, amid a blaze of controvers
 y\, Brookings invited Nobuo back. Though nervous\, he felt it was his duty
  to say yes. He brought his family&amp;rsquo\;s 400-year-old samurai sword\, t
 he same he had taken on every war mission. Always a man of honor and now a
  man of peace\, he planned to gift it to the town.&amp;nbsp\;&lt;em&gt;Thirty Minute
 s Over Oregon&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp\;recounts this remarkable true story of reconcilia
 tion after war.\n\nJoin author Marc Nobleman for a discussion about this b
 ook followed by a Q&amp;amp\;A and book signing.\n\nIncluded with&amp;nbsp\;&lt;a hre
