Good. Wear along original fold lines. Verso repair to a fold separation. Pinholing in corners and along sides. Dated Events Map of Europe on verso. Size 20 x 26 Inches. This is a Stanley Francis Turner map of the Pacific Theater of World War II (1939 - 1945), published in late October or early November 1944. As with Turner's other World War II maps, short text boxes highlight important events during the war up to publication, in this case from the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, until the U.S. invasion of the Philippines on October 17, 1944. A Closer Look - World War II in the Pacific Depicting from central India to Hawaii and from the Soviet Union and Alaska to northern Australia, Turner highlights Allied victories and Japanese expansion across the Pacific (including Corregidor, Bataan, and Guam). Text boxes inform on Japanese incursions into Manchuria, China, and French Indochina, as well as their alliance with the Axis. The Battle of Midway, Battle of the Coral Sea, and Battle of the Solomons are referenced by name. Red illustrates areas of under Allied control (India, Australia, and part of New Guinea). Pink, which colors the rest of New Guinea, part of New Britain, and most of the Solomon Islands, shades territory that has been retaken from the Japanese, and orange areas represent territory occupied by the Japanese. Verso Content: Dated Events War Map of Europe An edition of Turner's Dated Events War Map of Europe occupies the verso. This map is not as up to date as the recto map of the Pacific. Major events from 1944, including the D-Day landings, are not included, not to mention the complete lack of information concerning the 1943 invasion of Sicily. Intriguingly, other important events from 1943 do appear, including the Tehran Conference between Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin. The list of events on the Eastern Front (labeled 'The Great Russian Offensive') also includes events through the end of October 1943. Two polar inset maps occupy the upper corners.
