There is a terrific book about the Leyte battles called “The Stand of the Tin Can Sailors.”.

WhiskeyX posted some great videos yesterday about Taffy3, including https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCWZzqHc8ow.

Also, if you ever get to the National Museum of the Pacific War in Fredericksburg, Texas (the home of Admiral Nimitz), there is a great animated display of part of the battle called "Crossing the T".
