TOUCHED WITH FIRE: The Land War in the South Pacific by E. Bergerud 1996 HC 1Ed

Description: TOUCHED WITH FIRE: The Land War in the South Pacific by Eric Bergerud. NEW First Edition unstated hardcover, 1996. Between 1942 and 1944 the Allied forces and the Imperial Japanese struggled over the unchartered and inhospitable islands of the South Pacific. In what quickly became a war of annihilation, the Allies fought to defend their air and sea bases against an enemy that neither asked for nor showed any mercy. The eventual outcome of the war in the Pacific hung in the balance until the Allies finally shattered the myth of Japanese invincibility. This narrative is a revelatory portrayal of the lives of the regular infantrymen who struggled to contain the Japanese advance, the flow of battle as seen through their eyes. NEW First Edition unstated hardcover, unread with pages and edges clean and unmarked. Binding tight. Jacket shows minor corner and edge wear with light scuffing. No tears. Not a remainder. 5.75" x 8.5." Maps, photos, diagrams, chronology, glossary, and text. 566 pgs.
