Guadalcanal 1942-43 - America's first victory on the road to Tokyo (CAM Nr. 284) - Stille / Dennis
Osprey Campaign: Darstellung der wichtigsten kriegerischen Auseinandersetzungen der Geschichte mit Strategien, Taktiken und Schlachterfahrungen der gegnerischen Kräfte in den entscheidenden Phasen der einzelnen Feldzüge.

The Guadalcanal campaign began with an amphibious assault in August 1942 - the US's first attempt to take the fight to the Japanese. It escalated into a desperate attritional battle on land, air, and sea, and by the time the Japanese had evacuated the last of their forces from the island in 1943, it was clear that the tide of the war had turned. The inexorable Japanese advance and the myth of Japanese invincibility shattered. In this new study of the campaign, Pacific War expert Mark Stille draws on both US and Japanese sources to give a balanced and comprehensive account of a crucial, brutal conflict. Analyzing the three Japanese attempts to retake the island in the face of ferocious American resistance, this book shows how the battle was won and lost, and how it affected the outcome of the Pacific War as a whole.
