Battles of the Pacific War 1941 - 1945 - Matthew Adams - Bog

On the 7th of December, 1941 hundreds of
Japanese aircraft took off from a group of
aircraft carriers. Their target was Pearl
Harbour in Oahu, Hawaii which was home of
the U.S. Pacific Fleet. The Pacific War began
here, and for almost four years the United
States and their allies remained at war with
the Japanese Empire. During this period the
war in the Pacific engulfed much of Asia,
from the borders of India to the islands of Indonesia on the outskirts of Australia.

vast seas, islands and jungles of the Pacific

Japanese airstrike at Pearl Harbour. A tale
of epic confrontations, Battles of the Pacific
War 1941 - 1945 recalls where, when and
how the Pacific War was won and lost
within the battlefields of the Pacific.
