From Baird Maritime

At last, a naval history of the Pacific War that is not entirely American or Japanese centric.

While no one doubts that American forces did most of the “heavy lifting” in the Pacific, the fact is that there were significant contributions from other nations. They included Australian, British, Dutch, French, Indian and New Zealand forces.

This book puts those efforts into better perspective than many American histories produced to date. The author also lists a number of interesting and well thought-out “what ifs” about the war.

Quite, but not completely comprehensive, the author, for example, neglects to mention the naval aspects of Japan’s first defeat on land at Milne Bay, it is still a good overall record of an enormously important part of the world’s naval history.
