Synopsis
One of the most important and decisive naval battles in history, Midway was fought barely six months after the devastating Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. In a battle marked by great courage on both sides the United States dealt a devastating blow to the Imperial Japanese Fleet sinking four of her most powerful carriers. This battle turned the tide in the Pacific; after Midway the Japanese never recovered the initiative and the US forces began their island-hopping counter-attack. In this superb volume Mark Healy tells the whole story of Midway; espionage, daring, luck and extreme heroism.Book Details
