Critics Review
Praise for MIDWAY and LEYTE GULFThis work rises smartly above the massive literature on the Battle of Leyte Gulf with its concise yet very sophisticated narrative and above all analysis.
* Richard B. Frank, author of ‘Downfall: The End of the Imperial Japanese Empire’ *[T]his is the most up to date and likely to be lasting overall study of the Leyte Gulf actions in one accessible account. * Anthony P. Tully, co-author of ‘Shattered Sword: The Untold Story of the Battle of Midway’ *Masterful. Mark Stille debunks many of the myths still surrounding history’s largest naval battle. * Jon Parshall, co-author of ‘Shattered Sword: The Untold Story of the Battle of Midway’ *A worthy addition to any bookshelf. * The Naval Review *A major contribution to naval history. * Alan D. Zimm, author of ‘Attack on Pearl Harbor’ *Stille once again takes on the monumental task of challenging an accepted historical narrative and carries it off splendidly. The Midway epic is no longer gathering historical dust – it has emerged again as a stirring chapter in modern naval warfare. * History of War *About The Author
