Advertiser Staff

The newest book about the Pearl Harbor, a tome by former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and William R. Forstchen, is ranked 59th on Amazon.com's best seller list a week after being published.

"Pearl Harbor, a novel of December 8th," was published last week by St. Martin's Press and Thomas Dunne Books. The 384-page book includes 5 maps and 25 black and white photos and retails for $26. Gingrich and Forstchen previously collaborated on a series of novels on the American Civil War.

Gingrich will be at the Waikele Borders on Saturday to tout his latest book and meet fans. Gingrich, who was Time magazine's "Man of the Year" in 1995, will sign books beginning at 3:30 p.m.
