This work describes the great battles that have been fought in the Pacific during the 2nd World War: Pearl Harbour, Coral Sea, Midway, Guadalcanal, Truk Lagoon, Philippine Sea and Bikini Atoll. And it reports about the remains of the ships that were sunk those years. Profusely illustrated with a great number of (coloured) photographs – often full-page, not only historic ones taken during the war, but as well as present-day underwater photographs. With bibliographical references and an index. Splendid underwater photography.
