- More about Tower of Skulls: A History of the Asia-Pacific War: July 1937-May 1942
The first book in a new three-volume history of the Asia-Pacific War, by the acclaimed author of Downfall and Guadalcanal.
In 1937 the swath of the globe from India to Japan contained half the world’s population but only two nations with real sovereignty (Japan and Thailand) and two with compromised sovereignty (China and Mongolia). All other peoples in the region endured under some form of colonialism. Today the region contains nineteen fully sovereign nations.
Tower of Skulls is the first work to present a unified account of the course and impact of this part of the global war. It expands beyond military elements to highlight the critical political, economic and social reverberations of the struggle. Finally, it provides a graphic depiction of the often forgotten but horrific death toll in the Asia-Pacific region—over 20 million—which continues to shape international relations today.
