Following the disastrous Java Sea campaign, the Allies went on the offensive in the Pacific in a desperate attempt to halt the Japanese forces that were rampaging across the region. With the conquest of Australia a very real possibility, the stakes were high. Their target: the Japanese-held Soloman Islands, in particular the southern island of Guadalcanal.
Hamstrung by arcane pre-war thinking and a bureaucratic mind-set, the US Navy had to adapt on the fly in order to compete with the mighty Imperial Japanese Navy, whose ingenuity and creativity thus far had fostered the creation of its Pacific empire. Starting with the amphibious assault on Savo Island, the campaign turned into an attritional struggle where the evenly matched foes sought to grind out a victory.
Following on from his hugely successful book Rising Sun, Falling Skies, Jeffrey Cox tells the gripping story the first Allied offensive of the Pacific War, as the Allies sought prevent Japan from cutting off Australia and regaining dominance in the Pacific.

Thank You.
I have just about finished this great book. This is a great book. It is very well done and a truly fascinating telling of an epic struggle. And I would add, one does not have to be a WW2 era fan or even a military history buff. This is a great story on all levels and I feel it would be appreciated by people who typically do not read or listen to WW2 / military history.
Thank You for uploading this book.
To others who like this story and are interested in ‘Iron Bottom Sound’ or ‘Guadalcanal’ I can also recommend: Neptune’s Inferno: The U.S. Navy at Guadalcanal by James D. Hornfischer.
That Audio Book is on ABB and is another very good telling of this time and place in the Pacific War of World War II.
Thanks again to the uploaders of both of these books.
