Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Jones, Dixon - Cover Design (illustrator). Classis Reprint Edition. 456 Pages Indexed. A used book in near new condition. Front cover has a small crease and interior text pages are near flawless. Originally published by Doubleday in 1969. This book is Volume No. 4 of the University of Alaska Press's Classic Reprint Series. The Thousand-Mile War, a powerful story of the battles of the United States and Japan on the bitter rim of the North Pacific, has been acclaimed as one of the great accounts of World War II. Brian Garfield, a novelist and screenwriter whose works have sold some 20 million copies, was searching for a new subject when he came upon the story of this forgotten war in Alaska. He found the history of the brave men who had served in the Aleutians so compelling and so little known that he wrote the first full-length history of the Aleutian campaign, and the book remains a favorite among Alaskans. The war in the Aleutians was fought in some of the worst climatic conditions on earth for men, ships, and airplanes. The sea was rough, the islands craggy and unwelcoming, and enemy number one was always the weather--the savage wind, fog, and rain of the Aleutian chain. The fog seemed to reach even into the minds of the military commanders on both sides, as they directed men into situations that so often had tragic results. Frustrating, befuddling, and still the subject of debate, the Aleutian campaign nevertheless marked an important turn of the war in favor of the United States. Now (1995) half a century after the war ended, more of the fog has been lifted. In this updated University of Alaska Press edition, Garfield supplements his original account, which was drawn from statistics, personal interviews, letters, and diaries, with more recently declassified photographs and many more illustrations.

Book
Softcover. Condition: FINE! (unused). AUSTRALIAN MILITARY HISTORYÂThis historical narrative tells the story of the shelling of Sydney and Newcastle in 1942 by Japanese submarines. Although casualties and damage were slight, the bombardments fuelled the real fear of an impending Japanese invasion, a fate dreaded by Australians for a century before 1942.The narrative reconstructs the events that occurred in both cities and includes the search for, recovery and disposal of unexploded shells. In recounting this legendary tale of two cities, the book also examines Australiaâs east coast defences, the activities of the National Emergency Service, and the management and communications structures that were implemented during the early stages of the Pacific War. To put it all into context, A Parting Shot also offers a Japanese perspective to the story through a critical account of Japanâs submarine operations in Australian waters. Why did the Japanese launch submarine operations in Australian waters when they had no intention of invading? Were the bombardments revenge attacks following the Japanese defeat at Midway? What were the Japanese targets in Sydney and Newcastle? Were all the unexploded shells recovered? A Parting Shot answer these and other long-standing questions, dispelling many rumours and urban myths surrounding the Japanese submarine attacks.A Parting Shot is more than an account of a significant event in Australian wartime history - it is a living history, a landmark story about good luck, tragedy and courage. This is the first book devoted to this wartime history, and coincides with the 70th anniversary year of the Japanese submarine attacks.The Foreword has been written by Dr Peter Stanley, Head, Research Centre, National Museum of Australia. A Parting Shot adds to the controversial debate on the Battle for Australia. It also announces that one live Japanese shell remains buried on the Royal Sydney golf links. 319 pages, 8 pages of plates : illustrations (some colour), facsimiles, maps, photographs, portraits ; 23 cm World War, 1939-1945 -- Naval operations -- Submarine World War, 1939-1945 -- Naval operations, Japanese Sydney (N.S.W.) -- History -- Bombardment, 1942 Newcastle (N.S.W.) -- History -- Bombardment, 1942 Australian #271223/110524 Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
