In this episode of Echoes of the Past, we explore the United States between September 1939 and December 1941 — the tense years leading up to Pearl Harbor. While Americans focused on recovering from the Great Depression, debates raged between isolationists and interventionists over whether to enter the growing global conflict. We examine the nation's cultural mood, shifting political landscape, and evolving foreign relationships with Britain, the Soviet Union, Germany, and Japan. As economic pressures mounted and global tensions rose, the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor brought a reluctant but determined America into World War II.
