Annotation

Former U.S. Navy officer and author Gamble describes the history of Rabaul, a massive, heavily-fortified Japanese military complex on the Southwest Pacific island of New Britain during World War II. The author traces Rabaul's critical importance to the Japanese during the first year-and-a-half of the war and subsequent and subsequent Allied air attacks. At 44 months, it was the longest battle of the war but little understood.
