To understand Midway, the book Shattered Sword should be purchased and read. The Chinese analysis is superficial compared to that presented in Shattered Sword.

Great book. It is interesting how the differences in carrier construction and fire fighting tactics differed between the IJN and USN and contributed to the former’s defeat at Midway.
