In the first episode of what we hope to make an on-going series, Frye Gaillard talks with Stephen Murray about the 1944 Battle of Peleliu in the Palau archipelago and the memory of this chapter of the Second World War among the Japanese and Americans who fought the battle and among the Peleliu islanders, whose home was devastated by the battle. Stephen Murray is the author of The Battle over Peleliu (University of Alabama Press, 2016). 

The podcast is a co-production of the Center for the Study of War and Memory and Dogwood Studios in Mobile. Funding from an Arts and Sciences Special Development Award and a generous donation of expertise and time by Ray Norman of Dogwood Studios and by Frye Gaillard made the program possible.
