About this series from the United States Army's Historical Program

Published by the United States Army’s historical program following the Second World War, the United States Army in World War II series was created to provide a detailed and authoritative account of America’s military experience during the war. Written by Army historians and subject specialists, the volumes examine campaigns, strategy, logistics, intelligence, leadership, and the countless operational challenges faced across every theater of the conflict.

Rather than offering simplified summaries, these books were intended to help readers understand how events unfolded within the broader context of the war. Together, the series forms one of the most comprehensive official histories of the American military ever produced, preserving not only the major battles and decisions, but also the complexity, sequence, and human realities behind them.
