Touched with Fire The Land War in the South Pacific by Eric Bergerud is a portrayal of the live of the regular infantrymen who struggled to contain the Japanese advance. The author interviewed hundreds of surviving veterans and presents the dynamics of war through their eyes. Between 1942-1944 the Allied forces and the Imperial Japanese Army struggled over the uncharted and inhospitable islands of the South Pacific. The eventual outcome of the war hung in the balance until the combined efforts of Allied air and sea support finally shattered the myth of Japanese invincibility.
