<p><b>From the Back Cover</b><br><p> <strong>Praise for the Pacific War Trilogy: </strong> </p> <p> <strong> <em>THE CONQUERING TIDE</em> </strong> </p><p>"A gripping narrative of the central Pacific campaign...Toll is strong on the operational details of battle, but he is no less skilled at presenting something that is frequently missing from military histories, a well-rounded depiction of the home front on both sides."<br /><strong>- Walter R. Borneman, <em>New York Times Book Review</em></strong></p><p>"A beautiful blend of history and prose and proves again Mr. Toll's mastery of the naval-war narrative."<br /><strong>- Jonathan W. Jordan, <em>Wall Street Journal</em></strong></p><p>"A lucid and learned exposition of the grand chess match between high commanders in the middle years of the Pacific War, vividly evoking the grit and gristle of its many horrors and triumphs. Ian W. Toll is a superb historian whose writing appeals to both the head and the heart."<br /><strong>- James D. Hornfischer, author of <em>The Fleet at Flood Tide</em></strong></p> <p> <strong> <em>PACIFIC CRUCIBLE</em> </strong> </p><p>"Vivid, fast moving and highly readable."<br /><strong>- Ronald Spector, <em>Wall Street Journal</em></strong></p></p>
