“The PACIFIC WAR 1941-1945” - By John Costello. The first comprehensive one-volume account of the causes and conduct of World War II in the Pacific. From Pearl Harbor to the conclusion of the Pacific war in the mushroom clouds over Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Never before have the separate stories of fighting in China, Malaya, Burma, the East Indies, the Philippines, New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and the Aleutians been so brilliantly woven together to provide a clear account of one of the most massive movements of men and arms in history. The complex social, political, and economic causes that underlay the war are here carefully analyzed, impelling the reader to see it as the inevitable conclusion to a series of historical events. And the bloody fighting that indelibly recorded names like Midway and Iwo Jima in the annals of human conflict is described in detail, through its ominous conclusion in the mushroom clouds of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This one book covers the entire Pacific campaign in great detail. 1982 Softbound edition, two inches thick. 742 pages, a whopping 93 black and white photographs, 24 maps, an index and a large appendix.
