Book excerpt: Fiction it has been suggested is stranger than history, but the reality is fiction is history. It is either a record of an author’s stimulated imagination, or real events of historical merit with venues, names and dates skewed to protect the innocent. The former being the case for The Balanga Complex A Pilgrim’s Holiday. That is, mostly the case for life experiences can never be totally eliminated from a fictional story. To live is to have a story whether rooted in imagination or accrued from actual happenings. Both being the case for the author of this holiday story and that makes for a more familiar, if not a truer fictional tale.
Book Synopsis The Battle of Bataan by : Donald J. Young
Download or read book The Battle of Bataan written by Donald J. Young and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fought with obsolete and discarded equipment by an army mostly made up of untrained Filipinos, the Battle of Bataan has become one of the "forgotten" battles of World War II. This book provides a complete history of the conflict by looking at the events which led up to the battle, with an overview of the American, Philippine and Japanese forces that fought on Bataan. Abandoned by their commander, Douglas MacArthur, and written off by their president, without an air force or navy to support them, for 90 days the Americans and Filipinos held out against not only the Japanese but the ravages of starvation and disease. In the end came the largest surrender in American military history. The book contains dozens of period and modern photographs and several maps.

Book excerpt: What is the price of courage? Are honor, duty, and country the noblest ideals of American men at arms? How does a young American boy make the transition from a naïve country bumpkin to a soldier worthy to wear the green uniform of freedom? Are Americans that wear that olive drab uniform always the good honorable sons of the fertile land of Liberty? Difficult questions fog the young mind of Joshua David Duncan as he enters a world that defies his western imagination by a people whose ordinary acts of daily living are mystifying to behold. He enters the realm of Asia in all its captivating beauty with a relish to explore the land and meet the people. He sees the splendor of the Asian sunrise and sunset and the glory of the mountains and sea, but at the same time he is left stymied by the depravity of the golden skinned people. Without warning a dark, beautiful, native girl captures more than just his attention, but an unexpected war changes everything. And then the children appear: Hungry, ravaged, and frightened, but the paramount question is not asked with a why, but a who. Who do they all come from?

Book Synopsis United States Army in WWII - the Pacific - the Fall of the Philippines by : Professor Louis Morton
Download or read book United States Army in WWII - the Pacific - the Fall of the Philippines written by Professor Louis Morton and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 1347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Includes 11 tables, 25 maps and 71 illustrations] The soldier reading these pages would do well to reflect on the wisdom of the statement exhibited in a Japanese shrine: "Woe unto him who has not tasted defeat." Victory too often leads to overconfidence and erases the memory of mistakes. Defeat brings into sharp focus the causes that led to failure and provides a fruitful field of study for those soldiers and laymen who seek in the past lessons for the future. The statesman and the unformed citizen reading these pages will realize that our military means as well as our estimates and plans must always be in balance with our long-range national policy. This lesson-signposted by the Battle of Manila Bay; the Treaty of Paris, signed in December 1898 when we decided to keep the Philippines; the Washington Conference of 1921-22; and the Manchurian Crisis of 1931-we ignored before Pearl Harbor. The result was defeat on the field of battle and the loss of the Philippine Islands.
Book Synopsis Fighting for MacArthur by : John Gordon
Download or read book Fighting for MacArthur written by John Gordon and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2011-10-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Fighting for MacArthur is a welcome addition to the scholarship on the Pacific War. Gordon makes extensive use of the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps archives and interviews with veterans of the Philippine campaign. This is a well-written, engaging treatment of the steadily deteriorating position of the defenders in the Philippines.”—Michigan War Studies Review. For the first time the story of the Navy and Marine Corps in the 1941––42 Philippine campaign is told in a single volume. Drawing on a rich collection of both U.S. and recently discovered Japanese sources as well as official records and wartime diaries, Gordon chronicles the Americans’ desperate defense of the besieged islands. Gordon offers updated information about the campaign during which the Navy and Marines, fighting in what was largely an Army operation, performed some of their most unusual missions of the entire Pacific War. He also explains why the Navy's relationship with Gen. Douglas MacArthur became strained during this campaign, and remained so for the rest of the war. As a result of Gordon’s extensive primary source research, Fighting for MacArthur presents the most complete account of the dramatic efforts by elements of the Navy and Marine Corps to support the U.S. Army’s ill-fated defense of the Philippines.
