Pacific Alamo Paperback - 2004
by John Wukovits
"Wukovits has given this epic drama new meaning for a changing time."(Michael E. Haskew, WWII History Magazine)
Summary
Now a prominent military historian, breaking new ground on the assault, relates the compelling events of that day and the heroic struggle that followed. Thanks to the brave Marines stationed there-and the civilian construction workers who selflessly put their lives on the line to defend the island-what was supposed to be an easy victory became a protracted and costly battle for Imperial Japan. This is the story of that battle, from survivors on both sides, and with a gallery of historic photos.
First line
President Franklin D. Roosevelt sat in the White House study on December 7, 1941, an aging leader suddenly appearing older and wearier.
