The Defeat of the Japanese Navy!
4 pp · non-fiction; war
Admiral OzawaAdmiral "Bull" HalseyAdmiral Takeo Kurita: US NavyJapanese Navy

In the fall of 1944, as American forces close in on the Japanese homeland, the desperate Imperial Navy commits its remaining striking power to Operation Sho—a three-pronged gamble to drive back the invasion at Leyte. Admiral Ozawa's carrier force steams south to lure Admiral "Bull" Halsey's Third Fleet away, while Admiral Takeo Kurita's Central Force fights through waves of American air attacks hoping to reach the unprotected transports. The battle unfolds across multiple fronts as pilots and warships clash in a decisive engagement that will test whether Japan's last great naval gamble can turn the tide.

Phase Two!
5 pp · non-fiction; war
Admiral KinkaidAdmiral NishimuraAdmiral ShimaUS Navy: Japanses Navy

In the darkness of Surigao Strait, Admiral Kinkaid and the US Seventh Fleet lie in wait for the Japanese Southern Force—a powerful fleet led by Admiral Nishimura that's determined to break through their defensive line. As Japanese battleships and cruisers steam into the channel, the Americans spring their trap with PT boats, destroyers, and the big guns of their battleline, while Admiral Shima's reinforcements advance toward the chaos unaware of the catastrophe unfolding ahead. This gripping account of the Battle of Surigao Strait captures one of World War II's decisive naval engagements in vivid, action-packed detail.

The Decoy!
4 pp · non-fiction; war
Admiral "Bull" HalseyAdmiral KinkaidAdmiral Takeo KuritaUS Navy: Japanses Navy

Aboard the flagship of the Third Fleet, Admiral "Bull" Halsey receives troubling intelligence: the Japanese aircraft carriers have vanished from the expected battle zone. When search planes finally locate what appears to be a formidable enemy force 130 miles east of Luzon—complete with battleships and carrier decks—Halsey commits his fleet to a full northward assault at dawn. As American pilots descend on their target, they discover the true nature of what they're facing: a deceptive Japanese strategy that has pulled the Third Fleet away from the main action.

The Hawk Is Among the Chickens!
6 pp · non-fiction; war
Admiral SpragueAdmiral KinkaidAdmiral Takeo KuritaJapanese NavyUS Navy

When Admiral Sprague's small escort carriers and destroyers face an unexpected Japanese attack off Leyte, they must hold the line against overwhelming odds while help races to reach them—and Admiral Kurita's powerful fleet presses its advantage. Outnumbered and outgunned, the "small boys" of the Seventh Fleet launch desperate torpedo attacks against Japanese giants in a fierce bid to buy time, even as the Hawk circles ever closer to the undefended beaches.

Fish Away!
4 pp · non-fiction; war
US NavyJapanese Navy

A US Navy submarine stalks a Japanese carrier convoy in the Pacific waters near Mindoro, and when the opportunity strikes, the commander unleashes a devastating torpedo attack that cripples the enemy vessel. But victory comes at a price—the sub takes heavy damage from retaliatory depth charges and must limp toward safety while her crew races to keep her afloat. "Fish Away!" captures the tension and tactics of submarine warfare in 1955's Navy Patrol.
