Descriptionof Battle Diary Tarawa, Issue In Doubt
Manufacturer

This book is a visual chronicle of the Battle of Tarawa in the Pacific War of World War II. Of particular note is the access to previously unpublished photographs and accounts of the fighting. The Battle of Tarawa was a bloody precursor to the many subsequent battles for the Pacific Islands, and this book offers the reader an intense, new study of the day-to-day fighting. The 2nd U.S. Marine Division prepares for, is en route to, and finally lands on the small Pacific atoll of Betio Tarawa. It is the largest and most ambitious amphibious operation of its time in 1943. This attack from the sea was comparable to the Normandy landings of the summer of 1944. In this first volume, we follow the men of the 2nd U.S. Marine Division and Task Force 53 through their daily combat diaries, written in their own words each day during Operation Galvanic, supplemented by a series of photographs taken on each day of the operation. For the first time since the battle of 1943, the reader can experience the events firsthand. The book contains approximately 450 photographs and recovered battle diaries.
