The Ghost Mountain Boys: Their Epic March and the Terrifying Battle for New Guinea--The Forgotten War of the South Pacific by James Campbell

4.0

Well done book on a forgotten campaign. Something I knew very little about, I knew of it but not the details. The author does a good job of weaving the picture on the ground with first hand accounts and diary entries with the general overview from the command side. Sadly yet another campaign where men and their lives were sacrificed on the altar of Douglas MacArthur's ambition and ego.
