It is a chronicle complete with little-known facts and turning points, but always focused on the remarkable people at the center of events, among them the America-loving Japanese ambassador to Washington on the eve of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Russian builder of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and a Hawaiian queen during the first period of Western competition for the islands.Let the Sea Make a Noise . . . is a gripping account of the rise and fall of the empires in the last, vast, unexplored corner of the habitable earth -- an area occupying one-sixth of the globe. There is no other book that covers these same subjects in this wealth of detail and with such chronological scope.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51931418263840,"sku":"NEW0060578203","price":115.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/let-the-sea-make-a-noise-a-history-of-the-north-pacific-from-magellan-to-macarthur-0060578203","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
