Summary: "The War Against Japan: Pictorial Record" by Kenneth E. Hunter et al. is a historical account published in the 21st century, specifically the second edition from 2006. This work is structured as part of a series documenting the United States Army's role in World War II, specifically focusing on the Pacific Theater. The book serves to visually narrate significant events and campaigns against Japan, portraying the realities faced by soldiers through over 500 photographs, supplemented by minimal text. The opening of this volume introduces the context leading up to the involvement of the United States in World War II following the attack on Pearl Harbor. It details the initial responses of American forces, as well as the early conflicts against Japanese forces across various sites including the Philippines and islands in the Central Pacific. The initial sections discuss the tumultuous experiences of the U.S. troops, including the tragic losses at Pearl Harbor, the chaotic defense of the Philippines, and the challenges faced by the military in preparing for a prolonged and complex conflict in a geographically daunting region.
