I love this poster. I have an original in my office. Somehow, I never noticed the pipes…

You asked specifically for books-- let me add some podcasts:

Check out https://www.youtube.com/@UnauthorizedHistoryPacificWar An overview of the US Pacific war with a professional historian and WW2 museum director, and a retired submarine captain/commodore who served in the Pacific. Lots of high-quality guests, too, often including Parshall and sometimes Tully from bloopernova's list.

Also, https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLaBYW76inbX4kE52CPUvx... Doesn't have the authority of the previous, but is high-quality and covers the non-US portions of the war much better, IMO.

How can you determine the June 18th date? I'm not finding a reference to it.

Dang, there’s a blast from the past. I wrote up the original wiki for the Featherstone Library, creating the fiction that it was named after Donald Featherstone, and was a founder of the FFL.

I know a little about tube guitar amps, and my understanding is that they are desired due to their “defects” compared to more accurate solid state transistors. I would assume headphone amps would want pristine amplification— why would you want tubes, then?
