When it comes to the Pacific theater of the Second World War, Morning of the Rising Sun: The Heroic Story of the Struggle for Guadalcanal by author and historian Kenneth I. Friedman, Ph.D. is the quintessential guide to the epic and stirring tale of the six-month conflict between the United States and the Japanese Empire over the vital island of Guadalcanal. Located in the Southern Solomon Islands, Guadalcanal was in the direct path of the primary supply line between the continental United States and Australia-New Zealand; whoever possessed the island would control the direction of the war in the Pacific. Meticulously researched, the author uses a bipartisan approach to convey the great dedication and bravery of both the Allied and Japanese fighting men. His attention to detail provides an embracing journey through a series of the most ferocious land, air, and sea battles in the history of war.

With an engineering degree from UCLA, author and historian Kenneth I. Friedman received an MBA from San Jose State University and a doctorate in business from California Coast University. His first book entitled Afternoon of the Rising Sun - The Battle of Leyte Gulf also concerns the Pacific during World War II. He is a widower, has three grown children, two grandhildren, and lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
