reviewed War Stories II: Heroism in the Pacific on June 24, 2014 War Stories II: Heroism in the Pacific
Excellent book. Discusses in just the right detail the events leading up to and after the major battles and strategy in the Pacific from the Allied point of view. Intermixed are personal accounts written by men who were actually there. Learned many interesting not-well-known facts. Did you know more people died in the bombing of Toyko than in both nuclear bomb attacks? Did you know that Russia almost joined Japan in the war at the end? Or that even in in the face of the nuclear attacks, there was a large faction of the Japanese military that wanted to fight on to the last man? Technically accurate and the vignettes of the people who were there graphically exposes the horror of war. I got this as a book on CD from my local library. Have now obtained and am going to (listen to) War Stories III - The War in Europe.
