Merriam Press World War 2 History Series

First published as Chapters IX and X of The Campaigns of the Pacific War as part of the USSBS series in 1946.

Primarily concerned with naval operations, including naval and land-based air operations, it covers both American and Japanese plans and operations in this theater of the war.

The bulk of this work is composed of more than a dozen appendices, many of which are, or contain, extensive charts and tables of information, including orders of battle, strengths, casualties, losses, rosters, postwar question and answer historical interrogations, and translations of Japanese directives, operations orders, dispatches, reports, war diary excerpts, etc.

Very important and useful source of highly detailed information.
