Miracle at Midway Written by: Gordon Prange, Donald M. Goldstein, Katherine V. Dillon Narrated by: Dennis Holland Length: 16 hrs and 20 mins Unabridged Audiobook Release Date:07-14-14 Publisher: Audible Studios 4.40 (119 ratings) Six months after Pearl Harbor, the seemingly invincible Imperial Japanese Navy prepared a decisive blow against the United States. After sweeping through Asia and the South Pacific, Japan's military targeted the tiny atoll of Midway, an ideal launching pad for the invasion of Hawaii and beyond. The United States Navy would be waiting for them. Thanks to cutting-edge code-breaking technology, tactical daring, and a huge stroke of luck, the Americans under Admiral Chester W. Nimitz dealt the Japanese navy its first major defeat of the war. Three years of hard fighting remained, but it was at Midway that the tide turned. This vivid, in-depth bestseller is the first book to tell the story of the epic battle from both the American and Japanese sides
