"Hoyt writes two kinds of books. Some are the compilation of veteran accounts combine to paint the big picture the way John Toland or Cornelius Ryan do. The other type as complete an outline and catalog of events told in an almost matter of fact way. This is more like a catalog of events. You will learn how Nimitz conducted the war and the comanders both above and below him that he worked with."
