Description
The early years of World War II saw Nazi Germany dominate Europe, but by the end of 1941, as Adolf Hitler continued to build his Empire, events in the Pacific took on their own momentum as Imperial Japan and America became locked in battle after the bombing of the US Naval Fleet at Pearl Harbor.
As the smoke and flames rose from Pearl, America and its President, Franklin D Roosevelt, could no longer remain on the sidelines of the war that had been waging in Europe for over two years, and on December 7th, 1941, the hostilities were transformed into a global conflict. This would mark the beginning of a new chapter in the Second World War where the Americans joined the fight for what Roosevelt had laid out as the Four Freedoms.
The first was Freedom of Speech, the second, Freedom of Religion and Expression, the third Freedom from Want, and last but by no means least, the fourth was Freedom from Fear. The story of how the nation, which so treasured its neutrality and had gone to such great lengths to avoid fighting on foreign soil, joined the war, will follow in the footsteps of Roosevelt, the man responsible for the American Dream.
