"VOLUME I: PEARL HARBOR TO GUADALCANALThis volume covers Marine Corps participation through the first precarious year of World War II, when disaster piled on disaster and there seemed no way to check Japanese gains. Advanced bases and garrisons were isolated and destroyed: Guam, Wake, and the Philippines. The attack on Pearl Harbor seriously crippled the U.S. Pacific Fleet. After the fleet was rehabilitated the U.S. Marines launched on Guadalcanal an offensive which was destined to end only on the home islands of the Japanese Empire.Among the many section headings in this volume are: Evolution of Modern Amphibious Warfare 1920-1941, Marine Occupation of Iceland, The Defense of Wake, Marines in the Philippines, The Siege and Capture of Corregidor, Decision at Midway, Japanese Plans: Toward Midway and the North Pacific, Midway Girds for Battle, and The Turning Point: Guadalcanal."
