The book is awesome. Stephen Ambrose provided a jacket comment that it was the finest book on the Pacific war he had read, or something like that (we just moved and my books are packed). Absolutely read this book. As long as we're on the subject of history books, also read 1776 if you haven't already. Undoubtedly the best book on the American Revolution that has been written.

I actually didn't care for "1776." I kept saying, "Where's the beef? Why did so many people buy this?" I'd suggest, for the same topic but much better written, "Washington's Crossing," by David Hackett Fischer.

Undoubtedly the best book on the American Revolution that has been written.

Read the "The Glorious Cause" and then tell me what is the better book. Written by English history professor at Oxford, "The Glorious Cause" made me fall in love with my country all over again and made me give prayers of thanks to the wise men that founded our nation. A great read.
