Description
The Thousand-Mile War is a powerful story of the battles of the United States and Japan on the bitter rim of the North Pacific, that has been acclaimed as one of the great accounts of World War II. Author Brian Garfield, a novelist and screenwriter whose works have sold some 20 million copies, was searching for a new story when he came upon this "forgotten war" in Alaska. He found the history of the brave men who had served in the Aleutians so compelling that he wrote the first full-length history of the Aleutian campaign. The book remains a favorite among Alaskans and WWII history buffs. > More than half a century after the war ended, more of the fog has been lifted. In this updated edition, Garfield supplements his original account drawn from statistics, personal interviews, letters, and diaries, with more recently declassified photographs and significant additional illustrations.
