A Ceaseless Watch by Angus Britts

Angus Britts' ground-breaking investigation of Japanese, British, American and Australian naval planning in the lead-up to the outbreak of the Pacific War in December 1941 sheds new light on the Allies' difficulties in responding to the threat posed by the Imperial Japanese Navy, and how Australia shifted its reliance on the Royal Navy to a new relationship with the United States" —Dr. John Connor, senior lecturer in History, Australian Defence Force Academy, University of New South Wales, Canberra
