5.0 out of 5 stars THE absolute reference on US air involvement in the Pacific, October 20, 1998

This review is from: Air War Pacific Chronology: America's Air War Against Japan in East Asia and the Pacific, 1941-1945 (Hardcover)

Of course, this is no reading book. But any person who has an interest on air war in the pacific MUST have this book. This is a chronological day by day and theater by theater account of missions, units movements and victory claims for all US air operations, be it Army Air Force, Navy or Marine Corps. All this is served by excellent indexes that make it easy to find what you are looking for: places, poeple, units, you name it. In a nutshell - The perfect reference book.
