Ellenpoly Books: What Are You Reading? (164* d) RE: BS: What Are You Reading? 30 Nov 04

Here's something of interest for anyone who is either interested in World War Two, or alternative histories.

Hector C. Bywater. The Great Pacific War: A History of the American-Japanese Campaign of 1931-1933

This was written in 1925, and virtually predicted the events which would subsequently happen in the war years later. Bywater was killed in 1945, with many rumours about his death; one of which was that he was assassinated on the orders of Admiral Yamamoto who many think not only made use of Bywater's ideas, but wanted to make sure he was no longer around to offer more.

Below, is a review that explains a bit more about Bywater's book.
