Description: "In 1945, the United States and its allies planned the most dramatic military operation in world history. America Attacks Japan: The Invasion That Never Was examines what might have happened had that invasion taken place, as well as the lingering controversies over the decision that made all those plans obsolete.".

"Using extensive original research in newly opened archives and interviews with the original U.S. planners, Tim Maga reminds us that history can be influenced by what almost happened as much as by what actually happened."--BOOK JACKET.
