The long and bitter war in the Pacific during World War II has often been recorded by historians, but never in so unique and thought-provoking a manner as provided by War in Pacific Shies. This book, with its magnificent paintings by the estimable Jack Fellows, offers an entirely new way to view the Pacific war, and will become, I'm certain, a model for books that follow. Curiously, it is the very fact that the Pacific war has been reported so often, particularly in television documentaries, that makes this new book so important. Over the years, the public has become accustomed to seeing the Pacific war delivered in documentary tidbits, which often use the same footage over and over. This is a shame, given the millions of feet of unexploited footage that lies in the various depositories, but the expedient—and inexpensive—way to make documentary films is to select readily available material.
