Okinawa : the last battle / Roy E. Appleman, James M. Burns, Russell A. Gugeler, John Stevens ; foreword by Harry J. Malony.

Summary:

As the war in the Pacific progressed, the United States and Allied troops fought the Japanese in places like New Guinea and the Marshall Islands as they made their way closer to Japan<U+2019>s mainland. Okinawa was the intended base for the planned invasion of Japan. The Japanese, however, were entrenched, and the US and Allied forces found themselves in one of the bloodiest battles of World War II. More than 100,000 Japanese soldiers, 50,000 US and Allied troops, and 100,000 civilians lost their lives during this epic 82-day battle. -- Goodreads.
