I feel like I know most of the pacific broad strokes but not enough about Japan's invasion of China. So what is a good book about that part of the Pacific theater?

TIA.

There may be others but I thought Richard Frank did a good job in his book Tower of Skulls.

I'll second that, with the caveat that it only covers through the end of April 1942.

Thanks for the recommendation.

This is one area of WWII that I have not done a lot of reading about.
