Review
5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Not what the title claims it to beBy T. StibalA book by an aircraft enthusiast; this book does not really deliver on what it promises. It's a bland review of each of the major carriers (with bare dates and some place names); coverage of aircraft (this part is better than the rest of it) and a ringing of the changes as the US Navy progressed through the battles won on the way to victory.What it is NOT is an analysis of how the operations were conducted; changes in US carrier air strategy; and all of the ins and outs of conducting a carrier battle. Nothing on deck cycles; noting on air tactics; very little on the 'operation' of the ships.For a much better book on the topic; buy a used copy of the Norman Friedman book from back in the 1980s. It's thin and it covers all carrier ops; but the analysis is far superior.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. A waste of time when there are so many better books ...By S. LaidlawThis book is a train wreck. In the first 20 pages; there are so many typos and misidentified aircraft in the photo captions; I decided to return the book. A waste of time when there are so many better books on the same topic.
