With the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the United States entered World War II as a combatant. Although the war's primary focus was on the conflict taking place in Europe, the battle in the Pacific was played out on a monumental level, whether on islands overrun by Japanese forces, or on the ocean between ships, planes, and submarines. The Second World War: Asia and the Pacific begins with a comprehensive discussion of the military organization of pre-World War II Japan and America, and of political relations between the two powers. It then explores and explains the full breadth and scope of the Pacific theater of operations--from the political and military circumstances leading to the war to Japan's unconditional surrender. As in the Europe and the Mediterranean volume of this series, technological advancements, generalship, and military doctrines are examined through the significant battles, events, and personalities that shaped the course of the war.
