4.0 out of 5 stars
Good starting point, June 30, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Carrier Battle in the Philippine Sea: The Marianas Turkey Shoot, June 19-20, 1944 (Paperback)
Tillman's telling of the Marianas Turkey Shoot is a great starting point for those not familiar with the WWII Marianas Campaign. There are ample photographs of the various planes involve in the greatest aerial battle of WW II. Though, the book is a little bear in text and details - mainly relying upon oral accounts from pilots involve in the Marianas Turkey Shoot - it is serves as a starting point for those who wish to read and familiarize themselves with one of the greatest battles of WW II.
Amazon.com has several books, which cover the Marianas Turkey Shoot as well as the Battle of Saipan, and the entire Marianas Campaign. Among these highly recommended books are: Saipan: The Beginning of the End by Carl W. Hoffman and Oba: The Last Samurai, Saipan 1944-1945 by Don Jones.
