The Battle of Midway by Craig L. Symonds

4.0

** 4.5 stars! **
Such a good historical text, very much recommended !


This was such a comprehensive account of the Battle of Midway, and the events leading up to the battle. I believe it is a well- balanced, accurate, portrayal of both sides. You learn about all of the major players and events from both sides.

I did slightly struggle with how the author chose to discuss the battle. He chose to discuss the different attacks ship by ship instead of chronologically and I did struggle to comprehending when attacks where happening. This was easily remedied by looking T a timeline of the day.
