1.Days of InfamyDays of Infamy
from Thomas Dunne Books
Price: $18.45

Customer Review:
I found Newt's WWII historical ficton books more entertaining than the Civil war books.
They are both good but I guess I am more interested in the modern mechanics of ware rather than the strategies of the Civil war.
This book certainly holds you attention as the Japanese fleet and US... more info

2.Retribution: The Battle for Japan, 1944-45Retribution: The Battle for Japan, 1944-45
from Knopf
Price: $23.10

Customer Review:
This is my first Pacific Theatre (in keeping with the author's heritage) non-fiction book and I was totally taken in by Max Hastings' effort. Realizing that this is just a single year of history, the breath covered was remarkable. It was fascinating reading with very little wasted on superfluous... more info

3.Escape from the Deep: A Legendary Submarine and Her Courageous CrewEscape from the Deep: A Legendary Submarine and Her Courageous Crew
from Da Capo Press
Price: $17.16

Customer Review:
This an unbelievably well-written book that keeps you on the edge of your seat, and I couldn't help wondering what I would have done if I were thrust into a similar circumstance. Calling these guys the Greatest Generation is uttering an understatement.

from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
Reading this book reminded me about the unsightly tragedies that happened in Korea during the wartime as well. I remember my Korean grandmother telling me horrible stories of her childhood as she witnessed the people around her getting killed and bombed from the Japanese.
I am surrounded by... more info

6.Flags of Our FathersFlags of Our Fathers
from Bantam
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
I'd read "Flags of Our Fathers" after the superb "Flyboys," and perhaps it was only too easy to be disappointed. "Flyboys" is an amazing book, both focused on the immediate and on the greater picture; even for people who've read plenty of history, there are fresh revelations on every page.more info

My first Michener novel.
I was listening to an NPR show talking about the unexpected hit that the current (2008) Broadway revival of South Pacific has been. In the show they started talking about this book, the inspiration for the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical. I was just finishing a book and... more info

9.The Naked and the Dead: 50th Anniversary EditionThe Naked and the Dead: 50th Anniversary Edition
from Picador
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
The Naked and the Dead remains the most realistic war novel I have read. It is neither a romance of heroic deeds nor the grinding, dehumanised tragedy that WWI novels tend to be. Showing war as a contrasted field of acts of courage, calculation, treachery and occasionally weakness and cowardice, but... more info

from Potomac Books Inc.
Price: $17.79

Customer Review:
Shattered Sword by Parshall and Tully is simply breathtaking, the most thoroughly researched and lucidly thought out history of an event that I have ever read. Setting out to tell the story of Midway primarily from the Japanese side they have created the new standard of that crucial battle in the... more info
