Sea of Thunder

[Walt's Daughter]

From John Fallon...

 

The best book that I ever read about a naval battle. You must read SEA OF THUNDER. It starts off a little slow by talking about the bios of the four main characters two Americans and two Japanese. When the Battle of Leyte Gulf starts you will find it hard to put down. It is really startling to find out how close the Army Invasion to Leyte could have been severely hurt and maybe stopped. I had heard of Admiral Halsey's mistakes before but his man lays it our; he should have been relieved and maybe even Court Martialed three times. But go get the book.
