"An entertaining, impressively researched chronicle of the tense
period between the bombing of Pearl Harbor and American victory at
the battle of Midway."
*Kirkus*
"The research is thorough, the writing clear, and the narrative
flow exemplary...it is difficult to think of a recent book on this
subject that is of such consistently outstanding value."
*Booklist*
"Well documented—albeit from previously published materials—and
well written. Experienced World War II history buffs may bypass if
they feel no need to read another retelling of this phase of the
Pacific War, but nonspecialists and general readers will want to
consider it."
