Knife's Edge: South Pacific Carrier Battles from the Eastern Solomons to Santa Cruz
Robert C. Stern
While the resounding American victory at Midway in June 1942 blunted Japanese momentum to a great extent, it left the opposing forces precariously balanced, particularly in the South Pacific. In Knife’s Edge Robert Stern provides an account of the Battles of the Eastern Solomons and the Santa Cruz Islands.
