I read Hornfischer's Last Stand Of The Tin Can Sailors on Holiday, an excellent book. Also read Barrett Tillman's Clash of the Carriers about the Marianas Turkey Shoot and was very impressed. I am currently reading the Official US Army history of the Seizure of the Gilberts and Marshalls, and have a volume on the Marianas to read next. I am very impressed by what I have read so far, and would recommend any of the series on the merits of the volume I'm reading at the moment. I wish I had bought the other two volumes I saw in that shop in Durham NC (On Guadalcanal and Rabaul, IIRC), but sadly the weight of my suitcase was already becoming an issue 8)
