If Mahan Ran the Great Pacific War
The Mahanian part is fantastic but the stuff about the Japanese character is racist nonsense - a grotesque caricature, but actually this is only a small part of the book. Ultimately, much of the work is extremely well done, well explained and insightful. He does offer some clear-headed analysis about the Japanese cabinet & high command.
He uses some expressions that perplexed me and probably some readers i.e. "he sent the ships to Davy Jones" = "sunk the ships", a tin can is I think a destroyer, still not sure what a dogleg is. Also, someone told him maru in Japanese means cows, I don't think it does, it just means round, circle, or boat.
Any one who is a casual reader in World War would thoroughly enjoy it, this is highly readable, exciting, informative, illuminating. I think many people would enjoy it.
