Synopsis

Before Midway, the force of the Imperial Japanese Navy was almost unchallenged in the Pacific. This titanic naval battle was to turn the situation around, and give control to the US Navy, only six months after their appalling losses at Pearl Harbor - a victory that was only to be won with the loss of the USS Yorktown. This book is a brand new look at the historic battle, which for the first time put the Japanese on the back foot.
