À propos de cet audio

With an introduction read by Max Hastings. A companion volume to his best-selling Armageddon, Max Hastings' account of the battle for Japan is a masterful military history.

Featuring the most remarkable cast of commanders the world has ever seen, the dramatic battle for Japan of 1944-45 was acted out across the vast stage of Asia: Imphal and Kohima, Leyte Gulf and Iwo Jima, Okinawa, and the Soviet assault on Manchuria.

In this gripping narrative, Max Hastings weaves together the complex strands of an epic war, exploring the military tactics behind some of the most triumphant and most horrific scenes of the 20th century. The result is a masterpiece that balances the story of command decisions, rivalries, and follies with the experiences of soldiers, sailors, and airmen of all sides as only Max Hastings can.

The volume is a bit dense at times and the shifts in scale from the personal to the macro-political is a bit jarring, but otherwise great. Well worth your time, especially if you’re not quite as familiar with the eastern theatre

A little sense but good

I found the analysis of Chinese politics particularly interesting, the best part of a very good book.

I enjoyed every minute of this audio book.
