This volume will outline the process and results of developing the WWII Maritime Heritage Trail: Battle of Saipan Project.This book will provide examples of how a group of archaeologists, managers and a community took a specific battle and transformed it from a collection of unknown archaeological sites into a comprehensive storied battlescape that reflects the individuals and actions of those who were involved.

It will cover subjects such as:-heritage and dark tourism-conflict or battlefield archaeology-public interpretation, and community engagement. This volume will serveas a practical review of a project influenced by a range of complementary areas of study and inclusive of many stakeholders, from the public to the professional and beyond.Itprovides an example of a balanced approach towards research and interpreting archaeological sites through the identification and inclusion of the various stakeholders (professional and community) and an awareness of what was being included, ignored, or inadequately represented in the research and interpretation.
