Product Overview

From the major Japanese drives in 1937 to Japan's surrender, detailed maps delineate the course of the many conflicts that defined World War II. Thye also create a fascinating visual tribute to the ingenuity of troop movements by detailing the progress of forces from day to day (and sometimes from hour to hour). The accompanying text provides insight into the many twists and turns of the war, as well as the motivation of the leaders directing the troops who carried them out.
