Editorial Reviews
Sea Power, September, 1999
Sauer, a gunnery officer aboard Maryland, provides fascinating details of not just what happened, but how and why.

Book Description
The Battle of Leyte Gulf -- four major actions -- was the greatest sea battle in history. The Surigao Strait action is considered the Navy's greatest single triumph, a model of timeing, coordination and execution. This is a unique, behind-the-guns view; a gripping eye-witness account riding the battle line at Surigao int he last Crossing of the 'T'.
