The Scramble for Asia: U.S. Military Power in the Aftermath of the Pacific War
Angebote / Angebote:
Victory over Japan Day was August 15th, 1945. Yet that day was not the end of hostilities and open gun fire across Asia. As American generals and diplomats moved toward the official surrender on the deck of the U.S.S. Missouri at the beginning of September, the allied combatants wrestled for power in the new post-war world. Gallicchio expertly examines the diplomatic, military, and economic struggles in which the United States, China, and the Soviet Union were embroiled. Victory over Japan was but a prelude to an American search for a lasting peace across Asia, stretching from Korea to Vietnam and out to the Pacific atolls.
