The story of the US Navy's part in World War II, prepared in a nontechnical, readable form. A simple account of what happened to Navy men and Navy ships in WWII. Not intended to be a definitive history of the war in the Pacific during this period; but a well-rounded account, as seen by the men who fought to stem the tide of defeat.

The balance begins to change in the Pacific.

Excellent stuff again and as always fascinating to see things from the perspective of people who lived through it and without anything revisionist in terms of what is covered or the language used. ( )
