Midway by Hugh Bicheno
Before Midway, the force of the Imperial Japanese Navy was almost unchallenged in the Pacific. This titanic naval battle was to turn the situation around, and give control to the US Navy, only six months after their appalling losses at Pearl Harbor - a victory that was only to be won with the loss of the USS Yorktown. This book is a brand new look at the historic battle, which for the first time put the Japanese on the back foot.
Hugh Bicheno was born in Cuba and has worked as an academic, an intelligence officer and a freelance kidnap and ransom negotiator. After 25 years in the Americas he now lives in Cambridge and is devoted to writing about men at war. This is his second book in the series (after GETTYSBURG).
