Great account of the gallant US Navy in a battle that is historically remembered as a USMC event.

Extensive yet engaging history of the naval struggle surrounding Guadalcanal.

Incredible! Taste the sea salt, smell the blood, hear the explosions of the shells. Mr. Hornfischer has created a masterpiece of naval history that isn't soon forgotten. Positively thunderous.

Had this one lying around for a while now and am suddenly thrown into the thick of enjoying every word. I particularly enjoy Hornfischer's strongly active prose, making the events unfold anew.
