The Marianas: Saipan, Tinian, and Guam: a Pictorial Tribute (U.s. Marines in World War II)

Eric Hammel
4.9/5 (32369 ratings)
Description:Part of a network of Japanese military outposts established in defiance of the League of Nations, the Marianas came into play as soon as the Pacific War began.  Within days of bombing Pearl Harbor, the Japanese marshaled troops from Saipan to take over Guam, a U.S. property--and the Marianas continued as a Japanese stronghold for two more years.  In rarely or never-before-published photographs, this pictorial history chronicles the Marianas’ critical, and often controversial, role in World War II.  From the Marine invasion of Saipan in June 1944 to the launching from Tinian of the Enola Gay (and later Bockscar, the bomber that hit Nagasaki), the book documents in vivid prose and pictures the dramatic moments of World War II in the Marianas.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
