Neptune's Inferno: The U.S. Navy at Guadalcanal by James D. Hornfischer

4.0

Hornfischer is a master of naval battle narrative, really capturing the full picture of battle from all sides and bringing it to life in amazing detail. It seems like an impossible task--to make these seemingly distant moments in time feel real--and he literally never misses. This is no exception, with the sea and air battles around Guadalcanal brought to thrilling, terrifying, human existence. Highly recommend.
