Planned Invasion of Japan, 1945 : The Siberian Weather Advantage, Memoirs, American Philosophical Society (vol. 223) (Memoirs of the American Philosophical Society)

Yoder was designated the historian of the US Navy expedition to Soviet Siberia in August 1945 to study the weather conditions that would move from there to the Japanese islands and affect the invasion that US military officials thought might be necessary despite the Japanese surrender ten days earlier. He reconstructs the campaign using his notes, his memory, and official conference reports. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
