Solid entry in the fortress series by one of Osprey's leading World War II experts. This is a survey of the various defences that Japan constructed late in World War II to defend the Home Islands. Zaloga goes into a great deal of detail as to why these defences, while they might have increased the cost to the invading Allies, ultimately would not have worked.

Appartient à la sérieOsprey Fortress (99)
In 1945, with her fleet destroyed and her armies beaten, the only thing that stood between Japan and an Allied invasion was the numerous coastal defence positions that surrounded the islands. This is the first book to take a detailed look at the Japanese home island fortifications that were constructed during 1941-45. Utilizing diagrams, specially commissioned artwork, and sources previously unavailable in English, Steven Zaloga examines these defences in the context of a possible Allied invasion, constructing various arguments for one of the greatest 'what if' scenarios of World War II, and helping to explain why the Americans decided to go ahead with a nuclear option.
