The Battle for Guadalcanal (Great War Stories) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Considered by many to be still the definitive account of the crucial, tide-of-war-turning battle for Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands of the South Pacific, the book could be used for teaching infantry tactics to professionals, but is engrossing as well for the armchair soldier. The author fought with the Marines on Guadalacanal, retired as a General and went on to distinguish himself as a military historian. Recommended especially for European readers, who desire to know more about the War in the Pacific, which, equalled or exceeded the European Theater in lost lives and treasure.
