Question

What books cover Royal Navy operations in the Pacific?

Short answer

He recommends Stuart Eadon on kamikazes and Andrew Boyd's The Royal Navy in Eastern Waters, with Boyd as a personal favorite.

Notes

Two books provide useful routes into Royal Navy operations in the Pacific and eastern theaters. Stuart Eadon's work on kamikazes covers part of the air threat. Andrew Boyd's The Royal Navy in Eastern Waters supplies a broader account of the British side of campaigns often framed through American operations. Boyd's book receives the stronger personal endorsement.
