"The American war with Japan..not a chronological accounts of the pacific conflicts or 'Island Hopping' but the state of the minds and the thinkings of the two belligerents...."
"I don't dip into nonfiction very often, and this was a gift from Mom, I believe per my request for a good book on the Pacific Theater of WWII. What a good book. Learned a ton and burned through the pages."
"This is the de facto standard of the Pacific Campaign in WW II. I read this book originally in college for a History of Naval Sea Power class. I had to buy and read it again. This book is a little dry, as it contains so much information. It was better than 'Cats', I'd read it again and again."
"An excellent one volume history of the Pacific War. Leaves out nothing critical yet still gives some excellent insights into the lot of the troops involved."
