Whether a World War II historian or someone with an interest in wartime experiences, this diary is an engaging account of an anti-aircraft captain's experience fighting against the Japanese on the Pacific Front. With over 100 embedded images, such as photographs of New Guinea natives, army orders, newspaper clippings and servicemen literature, this diary is more than just a novel, it's a graphic depiction of the highs and lows of wartime service. From mingling with island natives and working with anti-aircraft radar, to diving into trenches to avoid falling bombs and winning thousands of dollars at poker, The World War II Diary of Captain George B. Spero adds a vivid, yet straightforward account to the historical record of what it was like to experience the Pacific Front of WWII.
