Overview

The Struggle for Guadacanal, August 1942-February 1943, Volume 5 in the series, covers the six major engagements in the waters surrounding Guadalcanal, in which the U.S. Navy experienced more fighting than in any three previous wars. From the Solomon Islands campaign to the courageous actions of Edson's Raiders at the Battle of the Bloody Ridge and the Battle of Tassafaronga, the author describes events from the ship decks, cockpits, and ridgetops where the fate of thousands was decided.

The single best book I have read on the Guadalcanal naval actions, fascinating and compelling, and a source of inspiration for the naval modeller. Highly recommended. * www.scaleplasticandrail.com *
