4.9/5 (17974 ratings)

Description:In December, 1941, Japanese naval bombers destroyed the United States Pacific battleship fleet at Pearl Harbor and unleashed a rampage in the Pacific Ocean and Rim, conquering the Philippines, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Burma, Timor, Sarawak and Wake Island and invading the Dutch East Indies and New Guinea. The battered United States Pacific Fleet was then confronted by the formidable Japanese naval superiority, in quality and quantity, of warships, planes, pilots and torpedoes but staggered up from its flaming decks to first check, and then defeat, the “invincible” samurai-obsessed warriors from the Land of the Rising Sun who killed between 28-63 million Asians during the war. Author Don Meyers analyzes the main causes of the remarkable comeback victory at the amazingly low cost of less than 0.2% of all military fatalities in WWII. These causes include: brilliant strategic planning; outstanding Intelligence work; dominant industrial capability; the determination of green, ex-civilan youngsters; and, not least, the skill and courage of fewer than 100 pilots and sub-skippers who sank all 22 ships of the Japanese aircraft carrier fleet and nearly 3 million tons of their Merchant Marine, leading to their unconditional surrender. There has never been a war like World War II in the Pacific. Many exciting episodes of this saga enliven this book.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
