Description: 2005 Book, CLASH OF THE CARRIERS, MARIANAS TURKEY SHOOT, WWII by Tillman You are considering an oversized or trade paperback book, CLASH OF THE CARRIERS: THE TRUE STORY OF THE MARIANAS TURKEY SHOOT OF WORLD WAR II by Barrett Tillman; PUBLISHER: NAL Caliber, NY; a 2005 copyright; 348 pages. In June, 1944, American and Japanese carrier fleets made their way toward one another in the Philippine Sea. Their common objective: the strategically vital Marianas Islands. During two days of brutal combat, the American and Japanese carriers dueled, launching wave after wave of fighters and bombers against one another. By day and night, hundreds of planes filled the skies. When it was over, the men of the American Fifth Fleet had claimed more than four hundred aerial combat victories, and three Japanese carriers lay on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Here is the true account of those great and terrible days by those who were there, in the thick of the Battle of the Philippine Sea. Drawing upon numerous interviews with American and Japanese veterans as well as official sources, Clash of the Carriers is an unforgettable testimonial to the bravery of those who fought and those who died in a battle that will never be forgotten. CONDITION: Minor cover wear. No other known damage. Items paid by Paypal can only be mailed to the address shown on the Paypal payment. I'm sorry if this is an inconvenience, but this is a Paypal rule, not me trying to be difficult. If you wish to have the package sent to a different address, change the "ship to" before making payment. I combine shipping whenever possible. PAYPAL REQUIRES UNIQUE TRACKING NUMBERS FOR each PAYMENT. If you buy a book, then make payment, then buy another book and make payment, I must ship each separately so we have two tracking numbers. If you wish to have items combined to reduce shipping costs, request an invoice after you have made all your purchases. Multiple Paypal payments means multiple packages--again, it's a Paypal rule, not me being difficult. We are not set up for LOCAL pick-up. We've tried it in the past and had too many "no shows". Our schedules can be erratic, so please allow us to mail your package. This is a non-smoking home. Most of my items are antique or vintage and have been purchased at estate sales and auctions. I am not aware of how the item has been stored or used before I received it. I do not purchase items with odors...whether from pets, smoking, dampness or just "old house".
