The book is a reprint of a critically acclaimed anthology of scholarly essays that give a comprehensive account of the war in the Pacific." -Publisher's Weekly (March 2010)

"Osprey is reissuing its 2005 publication, The Pacific War: From Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima, edited by Daniel Marston, in a handsome paperback edition." -Library Journal (March 2010)

"A fine collection of essays by a dozen experts, including Dennis Showalter, Ken Kotani, Richard Frank, Raymond Callahan, Maj. Bruce Gudmundsson and Col. Joseph Alexander." -World War II Magazine (May/June 2010)

Included in the Shelf Awareness round-up of Pacific War titles. -Shelf Awareness (March 8, 2010)

"Edited by Daniel Marston, The Pacific War: From Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima is a collection of essays written by various historians that, collectively, describes the Pacific War. To start the book, Professor Dennis Showalter provided an excellent first essay that introduced the readers the initial expansion of the Japanese Empire in the early 1900s and how Japan's regionalism led to the war in China starting in 1937 and the war in the Pacific starting in 1941... an excellent gide to those who knew the basics of the Pacific War but looked for something a bit deeper." -C Peter Chen, World War 2 Database / ww2db.com (March 2010)

"This one-volume overview of the Pacific War is a must for any history buff's personal library. It further benefits students in gaining understanding of the war period." - WWII History (September 2010)

Reviews of previous editions:

"This book, edited by Daniel Marston, is a compilation of thirteen very well written essays by group of very knowledgable historians... Overall, a good read and a good overall Pacific War source." -John D Burtt, Paper Wars (August 2008)
