505 0 $a50 years ago, Japan attacked Pearl Harbour and brought a reluctant America into World War II. Armed with fresh materials, which have become available only in the last decade, Renzi and Roehrs take a critical look at the decisive Japanese-American episodes in "The Great Pacific War". Unlike standard histories of World War II, "Never Look Back" includes the Japanese perspective, bringing to light challenging facts: in "Operation Flying Elephant" the Japanese attempted to cause forest fires in the American West by releasing hydrogen-filled balloons. When Americans of Japanese ancestry were interned during the conflict, word reached Japan of their plight and resulted in even greater mistreatment of American POWs in Japan. It is argued that Japan did not surrender because of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki or because of the conventional firebombing or because of the US submarine campaign, but because the USSR entered the war.
520 $aIncorporating recent findings by leading Southwest scholars as well as original research, this book takes a fresh new look at the history of Spanish missions in northern Mexico/the American Southwest during the 17th and 18th centuries. Far from a record of heroic missionaries, steadfast soldiers, and colonial administrators, it examines the experiences of the natives brought to live on the missions, and the ways in which the mission program attempted to change just about every aspect of indigenous life. Emphasizing the effect of the missions on native populations, demographic patterns, economics, and socio-cultural change, this path-breaking work fills a major gap in the history of the Southwest.

520 $aRobert H. Jackson has produced a catalog of the evils of the mission system on the northern frontier of New Spain, Mexico. The book focuses on mission areas that now form part of Arizona, California, New Mexico, Texas, and Baja California. Organized by theme, chapters cover mission economics and construction, social and cultural change, Indian resistance and social control, the decline of the mission populations, and the demise of the mission system. Different circumstances characterized these areas, making generalizations difficult. Relying on quantitative data from earlier studies, Jackson convincingly argues that the conventional view of population decline among Native American populations, emphasizing epidemic disease as the main cause, does not adequately explain the situation at every mission.
