Description

A memoir by William H. Whyte. The battle for control of Guadalcanal in 1942 and what the Americans learned from it forms the heart of the book. The battle was the first real test of land combat between the United States and Japan.

Author Biography:

William H. Whyte is most often remembered by the public as the author of The Organization Man, the 1956 best-selling examination of modern American society. Urbanologists remember him as a student of urban behavior and designer of living spaces. He was both, of course, but first he was a Marine, a fact he paid homage to when he said on the jacket of The Organization Man that he "was educated at Princeton and in the United States Marine Corps at Guadalcanal."
