Lundstrom (curator, American and military history, Milwaukie Public Museum) presents an account of naval air combat in the Guadalcanal campaign after Midway. He describes actual planes and pilots involved in the battles, and reveals the thoughts and fears of 150 American and Japanese veterans, based on correspondence with the veterans and their families. Lundstrom reconstructs every significant action of the fighters, placing them within the context of carrier operations. Includes numerous b&w photos. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
