Deception and Disaster: The Naval Odyssey of Professor James Brand

By J. Eugene Porter

The Pacific war expands with a new level of violence. General MacArthur pushes deeper into New Guinea and the islands surrounding the Japanese fortress of Rabaul. Admiral Nimitz prepares to unleash the Fifth Fleet in a series of campaigns in the Central Pacific aimed at breaking the outer barrier of the Japanese defenses. In Europe, British, Commonwealth and American forces continue to fight their way north in the mountains of Italy, while planning a daring amphibious landing to outflank the enemy's defensive position. Great Britain is flooded with American war production and manpower, as General Eisenhower prepares for the greatest invasion in history. Providing support to these senior commanders, the Science Team works to build the logistical base for the next phase in the war. New technologies and capabilities are introduced to aid these efforts. But first and foremost the Allied strategy must remain a tightly guarded secret even as the enemy prepares for the coming onslaught, unleashing new weapons of war with no sign of surrender.
