World War II laid the groundwork for much of the international
system that exists today, especially in the Pacific Rim. This brief
but comprehensive survey of the War in the Pacific incorporates
both United States and Japanese perspectives, providing a global
approach to the Asian theater of the conflict. Drawing on decades
of new scholarship and written in an engaging, narrative style,
this book traces United States-Japanese relations from the late
nineteenth century to the war's end in 1945. It covers every aspect
of the war, and gives special attention to ongoing historical
debates over key issues. The book also provides new details of many
facets of the conflict, including expansionism during the 1930s,
events and policies leading up to the war, the importance of air
power and ground warfare, military planning and strategic goals,
the internment of Japanese-Americans in the U.S., Allied plans and
disputes over Russian participation, the decision to drop the
atomic bomb, and conditions for surrender.
