This is a rather old out of production book however, many
people started to buy and sell old books in auction sites
like EBAY. Ballantine books become popular auction items
so I decided to review this one here.
It is in standard format with the rest of Ballantines
WWII series. The book is well illustrated with over 90
photos and maps. Many of them genuine Battle Of Midway
photos. The only handicap for illustrations are Hellcat
photos are substituted for Wildcat fighter.
The perspective of the book is very objective. Why
Admiral Yamomoto was so obsessed with the island, why and
how Japanese came up with this operation despite
objections from staff members are all included, in
addition to the events took place on the American side.
Written at a time when memories are relatively fresh
about WWII, this book is recommended to any WWII
Enthusiast.
