Description
The Thousand-Mile War, published in 1969 and just released in this Classic Reprint edition, dramatically documents the hard-fought battles of the Aleutian campaign during World War II. Included in this revised and expanded edition are once-classified photographs and new information from those who fought Alaska’s “Forgotten War.” Novelist and Hollywood screenwriter Brian Garfield combines vivid storytelling with careful research in his account of the 15-month campaign, which was carried out under some of the most hostile weather conditions on earth.
