One Square Mile of Hell The Battle for Tarawa by John Wukovits has been drawn form new sources such as participants letters, diaries and interviews. In Nov. of 1943, young men of the 2d Marine Division watched in awe as naval and air bombardments incinerated the tiny islet of Betio in the Tarawa atoll. But when the Marines landed instead of sweeping the island they were met with a nightmare.... the Japanese had survived the bombardments and began one of the most brutal and bloody encounters of World war ll. Three days of intense battle began on every square inch of sand. There were crossfires and no place to retreat. It is a remarkable account that takes readers into the battle and history.
