One of Osprey’s Duel series, this pits the Japanese submarine against the US destroyer in the Pacific, during 1941-42. As is usual with this series, it’s a short book with glossy, colour illustrations and mono period photos. The technical specs and armament of both are described before getting into some of the historical combat action. Complete with especially commissioned illustrations, it’s a handy guide to the war at sea in the Pacific.
