Book excerpt: John Costello's The Pacific War has now established itself as the standard one-volume account of World War II in the Pacific. Never before have the separate stories of fighting in China, Malaya, Burma, the East Indies, the Phillipines, 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.
Download or read book History of the Second World War written by and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A full assembly of all 223 maps and sketches from UNITED KINGDOM MILITARY SERIES: OFFICIAL CAMPAIGN HISTORY - THE WAR AGAINST JAPAN. These official maps will help unravel the complexities of a difficult war that saw the Allies pitted against Japan. The British Empire waged ceaseless war against Japan between December 1941 and August 1945, in defeat and retreat at first, stabilising in 1943 as the Allies hit back and the Japanese tide abated, and turning to the offensive in 1944. The Empire's war against Japan witnessed constant military activity and the deployment east of Suez of hundreds of thousands of imperial service personnel on land, sea and air, from Australasia, Britain, East and West Africa, and from a rebuilt and vastly expanded Indian Army. British Imperial military activity continued, following the surrender at Singapore, in Borneo, the Dutch East Indies, Ceylon, and in places such as New Guinea and British Pacific islands, occupied Malaya, Thailand, and beyond. British Imperial forces were also constantly active at sea and in the air, even when the Empire's fortunes were at their nadir in 1942.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. and the War in the Pacific, 1941-45 analyzes the Pacific War with a focus on America's participation in the conflict. Fought over a great ocean and vast battlefields using the most sophisticated weapons available, the Pacific War transformed the modern world. Not only did it introduce the atomic bomb to the world, it also reshaped relations among nations and the ways in which governments dealt with their own peoples, changed the balance of power in the Pacific in fundamental ways, and helped to spark nationalist movements throughout Asia. This book examines the strategies, technologies, intelligence capabilities, home-front mobilization, industrial production, and resources that ultimately enabled the United States and its allies to emerge victorious. Major themes include the impact of war, conceptions of race, Japanese perspectives on the conflict, and America's relations with its allies. Using primary documents, maps, and concise writing, this book provides students with an accessible introduction to an important period in history. Incorporating recent scholarship and conflicting interpretations, the book provides an insightful overview of the topic for students of modern American history, World War II, and the Asia Pacific.
