Publisher Description

A huge column of blood red smoke rose a thousand feet as the battleship USS Arizona blew up. The USS Oklahoma capsized. The California, Nevada and West Virginia were all sunk at their moorings. 181 Japanese warplanes had attacked the US Pacific Fleet as it lay at anchor in Pearl Harbor. There had been no formal declaration, but the United States of America was now at war...

Read about the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor, along with the merciless invasion of South East Asia by the army of the Rising Sun and the American fightback in the advance from Guadalcanal to Okinawa in this 3 in 1 True Combat Compendium.

Each title in the series provides gripping, unforgettable insights into the minute by minute confrontations, extreme heroism and terrible brutality of the greatest conflict the world has ever known.
