Book Description
This spectacular fifteen-volume series that charts the U.S. Naval operations during World War II with an insider's perspective. Morison, a Harvard professor, was given a special rank and writing post by FDR. He had active duty aboard eleven different ships, allowing him to witness many crucial battles in both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Volume Seven-the fifth in this series to deal with actions in the Pacific-includes complete coverage of two of the most important amphibious operations of the war, the recovery of the Gilbert Islands and the conquest of the Marshalls. Filled with many maps and file photographs.
