Now
in its 12th year, The Battle of Midway
Roundtable is a living historical resource that includes over 40 veterans
of that epic clash. No Right To Win:
a Continuing Dialogue with Veterans of the Battle of Midway tells their
personal stories, providing unique new insight on the 20th century’s greatest
naval battle.
In 1942, one of the most powerful invasion forces in history descended upon the tiny atoll of Midway, 1100 miles northwest of Hawaii. The Japanese intent was to lure America’s badly depleted Pacific Fleet into the open where it would be overwhelmed, forcing the U.S. to end World War II in the Pacific on Japanese terms. But it didn’t happen that way. Through an amazing combination of skill, courage, and especially luck, the U.S. not only prevailed at Midway but delivered to the enemy a crushing defeat that instantly changed the course of the war.
No
Right To Win is a fresh look at the great battle, focusing entirely on
first-hand accounts by Midway veterans and the understandings that can be
derived from them. Included are many
of their anecdotes and revelations that compel a rethinking of some of the
battle’s most entrenched tenets. Could
the defenders on the atoll have repulsed a Japanese amphibious assault? Did an aircraft carrier captain falsify his
after-action report? Were the Japanese
about to invade Hawaii? Did the battle
impact the D-Day landings in Normandy? No
Right To Win explores those intriguing questions and much more in a
wide-ranging examination of the twentieth century’s most important naval
battle.
No Right To Win complements the
familiar references on the Battle of Midway by providing exclusive first-person
insight on the deck and cockpit-level experiences of the men who fought and won
the battle. Its stars are former pilots and aerial gunners, flight deck
mechanics, cruiser and destroyer sailors, communications intelligence experts,
and U.S. Marines who defended the atoll. You'll find them all and more
in No Right To Win .
