All Editions of The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors: The Extraordinary World War II Story of the U.S. Navy's Finest Hour
Books by James D Hornfischer
Un-believable bravery by American Sailors
This book was fast paced, informative and graphically stunning in description. As a veteran, 'I' was shakened by the horror these Sailors experienced and still stood to represent America. Their bravery against the odds, showed the best of their leaders and the every day service member. This is a history lesson, that every American should read, and learn, and feel. The book is written in fast flowing images. History of the combatents, Japan and America was most informative. Amazing book.
