- Summary:
-
"In this history, James B. Wood challenges the received wisdom that Japan's defeat in the Pacific was historically inevitable. He argues instead that it was only when the Japanese military abandoned its original strategic plan - to secure resources and establish a viable defensible perimeter - that the Allies were able to regain the initiative and lock Japanese forces into a war of attrition they were not prepared to fight."--BOOK JACKET.
