On this Pearl Harbor Day, we remember those who were lost on December 7, 1941. Federal documents can be a valuable source for those doing historical research, and the Wyoming State Library’s collection includes many related to the military. We found these books on our shelves on the attack on Pearl Harbor, the events that led up to it, and its aftermath:
