Reviews
"A must for anyone with more than a superficial interest in World War II or military history. This is the first comprehensive examination of General Douglas MacArthurs use of ULTRA. Dreas use of primary sources and secondary Japanese material results in a balanced picture that gives both sides of the story. Particularly fascinating is his description of the Japanese codes themselves and how they were decoded by MacArthurs Central Bureau."Choice "Dreas excellent study presents a detailed illustration of the interplay between intelligence-gathering and operational planning and uses one of historys most successful commanders as its model."Publishers Weekly "A superb book that will surely be the prime reference work on the subject for years to come."Cryptologia "Belongs in all War II collections."Library Journal "One of the preeminent historians of the Pacific War, Drea has produced a groundbreaking assessment of the impact of special intelligence(i.e., ULTRA intercepts) on MacArthurs Southwest Pacific Area campaigns that is vital to those hoping to gain a full understanding in this corner of the war.
