Definitive account
Reading about the Pacific War in the new WWII novel, "The Triumph and the Glory", spurred me into exploring the topic further, so I picked up a copy of "Eagle Against the Sun" and was very impressed. It is solidly researched, very readable, all in all one of the better history volumes about the great struggle in the Pacific between the United States and Imperial Japan.
A comprehensive study of U.S.--Japanese relations in WW2.
An outstanding study of the developments leading to the war between Japan and the U.S. and of the war itself.
