In the desolate middle of the largest ocean on earth, two great navies approached, one bent on conclusive battle, the other lying in ambush. Six months after Pearl Harbor, Yamamoto again crossed the Pacific with the largest and most powerful naval armada the world had ever seen, this time to finish the job. Nimitz waited for him with what he had, placed exactly where he needed it. Both admirals depended on their fliers, some veterans of battle, others raw and unproven. Striking first meant decisive victory.

This is the story of a people who have lost the political fight, they've lost the culture wars, they haven't seen a level playing field in a generation, and they are about to be made serfs. None of that matters. They're leaving....

Great Navy Tale
Young Kelly Maguire must prove himself as an officer in the Royal Navy of WW1. He rises to the challenge and starts his slow rise through the ranks. A compelling story with enough history, action, and romance to hold my interest. Narration is excellent including good work on nautical terms and giving each character a distinctive voice.
