Nathan N. Prefer has written a number of highly acclaimed works on both the European and Pacific theatres of World War II, including Patton's Ghost Corps, Vinegar Joe's War, and The Battle for Tinian, the first-ever book that descirbedd the tough battle for that island near Saipan that gave the US its launching pad for the atomic attacks on Japan. A former Marine reservist, he has most recently written Leyte: The Soldiers' Battle, which at long last unveiled the Phillipines campaign as a costly slog-match for US troops against the Japanese Army, instead of merely the quick naval action for which it is best known. With this wirk on the Colmar Pocket in the ETO, Prefer furthers his reputation for revealing unsung battles in World War II. He currently resides in Fort Myers, Florida.
