Stille, Mark MIDWAY: The Pacific War's Most Famous Battle Examines the Battle of Midway and how it has been mythologized. Provides a detailed analysis of this pivotal battle, and argues that Midway was neither a miraculous American victory, nor a product of good fortune; but that the plans, personalities, doctrines, ships, and weapons of the two sides meant that a Japanese defeat was the more likely outcome.
