After books devoted to the Battle of Iwo Jima and the 1st Marine Division, Charles Trang now offers us an encyclopaedia about the Marines in the Pacific from 1941 to 1945 in which each of their campaigns is dealt with in detail, with a host of eye-witness ac- counts and unpublished photographs. Cor- rigedor, Wake, Midway, Guadalcanal, Makin, Bougainville, Rabaul, Tarawa, the Marshall Islands, Cape Gloucester, Saipan, Tinian, Guam, Iwo Jima and Okinawa are all names that evoke bloody, merciless battles where the Marines made themselves a reputation for resolve, relentlessness and professionalism rarely equalled during the Second World War. The book is very comprehensive and goes through all the US Marine Corps units, from the fighter groups to the independent artillery units, the paratroopers and the Raiders. The book is completed by the Order of battle, command structure and portraits of all the Con- gressional Medal of Honor recipients.
