About this listen

Midway: The Tide of War an authoritative account of one of the most pivotal confrontations in World War II, vividly captures the extraordinary clash between the United States and Imperial Japan in the Pacific theater. Set in June 1942, this epic naval engagement took place near the Midway Atoll and fundamentally altered the course of the war.

As the Japanese sought to expand their influence and control over the Pacific, they launched a massive assault on Midway Island, aiming to draw out and annihilate the United States Pacific Fleet. Unbeknownst to the Japanese, however, American codebreakers had decrypted their plans, granting the US forces a vital advantage.

In a fierce battle that unfolded both in the air and on the seas, American carrier-based aircraft valiantly fought against overwhelming odds, managing to sink four Japanese aircraft carriers and permanently crippling their naval power. The Battle of Midway marked a turning point, shifting the strategic initiative in favor of the United States and ultimately contributing to Japan's ultimate defeat.

This meticulously researched narrative honors the bravery and sacrifice of those involved while providing an enthralling account of a pivotal moment in world history.
