Our Jungle Road to Tokyo (Annotated)

By Robert L. Eichelberger

Book Overview

"Take Buna, Bob, or don't come back alive." - Douglas MacArthur to Robert Eichelberger. Our Jungle Road to Tokyo is the action-packed account of how US and Allied forces overcame incredible odds to rout invading Japanese from entrenched positions deep in the mountain jungles of Papua New Guinea. Battles in The Buna Campaign took place in swamps, impassable vegetation, coconut plantations with invisible snipers buried in tree roots, hillsides riddled with pill-boxes and maze-like underground bunkers impervious to artillery and mortar. *Includes annotations and official photographs from the Buna Campaign.
