But, in this show, our guest argues that the Pacific War was not a secondary front but the decisive struggle that reshaped the modern world. Across an oceanic battlefield spanning roughly a fifth of the globe, it shattered empires, unleashed the atomic age, and established American power in Asia. Its consequences ran from Korea and Vietnam to the rise of modern Asia, making the Pacific the true cockpit of the postwar order. Buy the book: USA https://www.amazon.com/War-Half-World...
