This was a good biography of Wade McCluskey, who made a critical intuitive decision that found the Japanese fleet while leading dive bombers at the Battle of Midway. The author makes a good case that McCluskey was an enormously experienced aviator whose contribution during the battle has been largely ignored or disrespected, especially by current historians. McCluskey was clearly instrumental in winning a battle that turned the tide in the Pacific theater.
That said, this is not a perfect book. As others have pointed out, it is extremely repetitive. The author repeats the basic facts about McCluskey again and again. Simply stated, and as is the case with so many books, it could have used a good editing.
The narrator is good, but he did remind me of an announcer on a World War II newsreel. It is as if the narrator is consciously using his “announcer voice.” It was OK to me, but others may find it annoying.
