I am always looking for books about the actions of the Imperial Japanese Navy during the Secod World War and made notice of this one in the bibliography of other titles. The book deals with the last mission of the superbattleship Yamato, that was sent on a one way mission to Okinawa, to counter the US invasion of this island. It is a very good text, full of details and covering both sides, including not only the Yamato mission, but also kamikaze operations, the air battles, aspects of the ground battle in Okinawa and even submarine operations on both sides (US and japanese). There are some minor technical errors, but they do not interfere with the final result - a nice reference for amateur historians.
