Historie

On 7 December 1941, the Japanese navy attacked Pearl Harbour. Simultaneously, they launched all-out assaults on Malaya, Hong Kong and the Philippines. Japan's sphere of influence spread at phenomenal rates and it seemed their dream of empire was about to be realized.

Featuring remarkable photographs and useful maps, Victory in the Pacific examines how the tide of Japanese victory was turned. Following pivotal battles such as the Battle of Guadalcanal, the Battle of Leyte Gulf and the Battle of the Coral Sea, Karen Farrington describes and how the Allies fought their way the length and breadth of Burma and from island to island on their way to achieving final victory in the East.
