Sea of Thunder: Four Commanders and the Last Great Naval Campaign 1941-1945

Sea of Thunder: Four Commanders and the Last Great Naval Campaign 1941-1945 is by Evan Thomas. A magnificent and detailed look at the Battle of Leyte Gulf and the four commanders (two Japanese and two American) who fought there. WWII buffs and those fascinated by Naval battles will enjoy the detailed look at the battle and the commanders involved. This book can seem dry to those who are not interested in military history, but it is full of information and insight. It follows the commanders  (Halsey, Evans, Kurita and Ugaki)from the beginning of the war through to the end.

Ratings: Adults - 8 out of 10 - P (profanity) - AC (mature thematic content).
