And, they felt confident of victory. But, right from the start, the plan proved disastrous--and the Japanese lost decisively, with all four major units sunk. Once and for all, the balance of power in the Pacific shifted, with the United States in control. Filled with exciting images of air clashes, and fiery devastation on the ground, as well as follow-the-battle maps, it's a compelling and authoritative account of the reasons behind the catastrophic Japanese strategy.\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cassell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780304357154\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bicheno, Hugh","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £4.25","offer_id":47953788534961,"sku":"SB-0304357154-C3","price":4.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/midway-fields-of-battle-series","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
