"Absolutely outstanding, Wrinn has a humane, sure eye for detail." – Reader

 

A gripping account of the Pacific War that became a history-changing struggle without mercy or precedent.

 

From the shores of Peleliu, Iwo Jima and Okinawa, the Second World War left a profound mark on this sheltered corner of the globe, which would be felt for decades to come.  Caught in the center of a vicious struggle between two superpowers, these islands would form an unconventional battleground for the Allied forces and the Imperial Japanese Army and Navy.

 

From the heavy fighting on Peleliu and Iwo Jima to the ultimate victory on Okinawa, each of these momentous operations were fascinating feats of strategy, planning, and bravery, handing the Allies what would eventually become a victory over the Pacific Theater and an end to Imperialist Japanese expansion.

This book sheds light on this often-overlooked facet of WWII, providing students, history fans, and World War II buffs alike with a captivating breakdown of the history and combat that defined the ending of the US offensive in the Pacific.
