Hello, all- I am looking for a publication or information regarding WWII island fortifications in the United States. Has anyone come across a book that addresses this subject specifically? Thanks for any help or thoughts!
If memory serves me right there is a volume in the Osprey Fortress series about US coastal defenses, it's Osprey though!!! If there is something, this would be the place where I would start my search: Fortress Books - Books on fortification, artillery and military history
You could try flipping through the field manuels here. Quite a few deal with fortifications. HyperWar: U.S. Army Field Manuals
Some of the Osprey volumes are a bit light in terms of detailed information. They're good "general overview" books. I personally like them, but they're a pricy for what you get (~100 page softcover book for 25 bucks here in Canada).
