Publisher's Note
A definitive chronicle of the final year in the Pacific war of World War II offers insightful portraits of key figures in the efforts to defeat Japan--MacArthur, Nimitz, Mountbatten, Mao, and Chiang Kai-shek--and discusses such topics as the road to Allied victory, the war's bloody campaigns, Japan's war against China, and the decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki. 100,000 first printing.

Industry Reviews
"This is an absolutely absorbing story woven from the grand designs of the policy-makers and strategists together with the letters, diaries and memories of those who fought at the sharp end, friend and foe alike....[S]hould rank as Max Hastings's best book."
(10/01/2007)

"Hastings is a military historian in the grand tradition....He is equally adept at analyzing the broad sweep of strategy and creating thrilling set pieces that put the reader in the cockpit of a fighter plane or the conning tower of a submarine. But he is best on the human cost of war."
(03/30/2008)

"The great merit of Max Hastings's many books on war is his skill at bringing the numbers, as it were, down to earth. Through the imaginative power of his writing, we get an inkling (and we cannot expect more than that) of what it must have been like to slog one's way up a cliff at Iwo Jima, or be firebombed in Tokyo, or be tortured in a Japanese POW camp, or be hit by a torpedo or a kamikaze plane full of explosives."
(05/01/2008)
