The United States is reeling from the blow the Japanese inflicted at Pearl Harbor. But the Americans are determined to turn the tide. The key comes from Commander Joe Rochefort, a little known "code breaker" who cracks the Japanese military encryption. With Rochefort's astonishing discovery, Admiral Chester Nimitz will know precisely what the Japanese are planning. But the battle to counter those plans must still be fought. The story of Midway has been told many times, but never before like this. 0aMidway, Battle of, 1942vFiction. 0aWorld War, 1939-1945zPacific OceanvFiction. 7aHistorical fiction.2lcgft. 7aWar fiction.2lcgft.
