" This is a scholarly yet quite readable account of how military strategy prevailed over diplomacy and politics during the period from Pearl Harbor to victory at Guadalcanal. Analysis of pre-war activities--including considerable misinterpretation of intelligence and opposing intentions by Japan and the United States--is especially interesting." --Naval Institute Proceedings
