Key decisions and events of the Pacific War are explored in this
work by juxtaposing Allied and Japanese accounts, giving voice to
both sides in this epic confrontation. Competing Voices from the
Pacific War: Fighting Words covers the period from July 1937 to
September 1945, touching briefly on the post-war Allied occupation
of Japan. Although it emphasizes American and Japanese accounts, it
also includes perspectives from other nations. Materials covering
political and strategic issues, the experiences of combatants and
prisoners of war, the experiences of civilians caught up in the
various war zones, and the impact of the war on the various home
fronts, are also included. By including a range of primary sources
representing the experiences and views of participants and
commentators of all sides and setting them in their historical
contexts, this unique anthology promotes an understanding of the
Pacific War, the events that led up to it, and its legacies.
Alongside sources that reflect traditional military history,
material that considers the war from the perspective of the "new
military history" is also included.
