Never before has such a unique assembly of rare documents been available. WAR IN THE PACIFIC brings to life the story of the heroic actions of the men who fought the relentless war against Japan in World War II. Includes recorded memories, photographs, maps, and actual reproductions of 20 rare key documents and the dispatch to General MacArthur to abandon the Philippines, the Pocket Guide to Australia issued to US army and navy forces in 1942, and much more!WAR IN THE PACIFIC is being released to coincide with the much-anticipated 10-part mini-series coming from HBO in March.War In The Pacific 1941-1945 looks at the relentless war against Japan in the Pacific Islands which formed an integral part of eventual Allied victory in World War II. Setting the scene with the unprovoked Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the almost simultaneous attack on US bases on Guam and Wake Island, it then goes on to document the bloody battles fought in the jungle islands of Guadalcanal and the Philippines and the seas of the Pacific.As fortunes turned in 1942 the Allies fought hard to regain lost ground and the intensity of battle did not waver. It tells the story of the heroic actions of the men who toiled on the islands, the names of which have now become synonymous with bloodshed, hardship and unstoppable spirit which eventually resulted in victory for the Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Rabaul, Guam, Iwo Jima and finally Okinawa.This fascinating and heart-wrenching story is brought to life by the addition of 20 carefully selected facsimile pieces of memorabilia ranging from military orders to propaganda leaflets dropped by the Japanese on US troops to the personal diaries and letters home of both generals, officers and ordinary soldiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"col col-sm-3\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"images\"\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51alVkwJLPL.jpg\"\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"row panel-container\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class='col\u0026lt;\/div\u0026gt;\u0026lt;div class=\"condition-note\"\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;strong\u0026gt;Condition: Good\u0026lt;\/strong\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;The book is in solid, readable condition with some signs of wear on the cover and pages.
