Rex Alan Smith is a veteran of 36 months with the Army Engineers in the Pacific. His books include: One Last Look (Abbeville), about the 8th Air Force in World War II, and The Carving of Mount Rushmore (Abbeville). Gerald Meehl, the author of more than 90 articles, has traveled extensively in the South Pacific for three decades and has photographed every major island battlefield as well as other related sites. Joe Foss, Medal of Honor winner at Guadalcanal, was the Marine Corps' Ace of Aces, with 26 confirmed kills, the first American fighter pilot to surpass Eddie Rickenbacker's record set in World War I.
This pictorial chronicle of America's bitter war against Japanese imperialism interweaves poignant first-person memories with an extensive colour portfolio of dramatic wartime relics that have survived decades on most of the Pacific island battlefields.
