Description

The Twilight Players, champion of the 2011 Samuel Eliot Morison Award for Naval Literature, may be the engrossing, page-turning tale of the tightly-knit group of naval pilots who're forced in to the final—and many brutal—battle of the Pacific conflict: Okinawa.April 1945. The finish of World-War II ultimately seems to be approaching. The 3Rd Reich is crumbling in Europe, and the Americans are consuming the once-mighty Japanese Empire in the Pacific. For several young pilots been trained in the twilight of the battle, the best fear is that it'll finish before they've an opportunity to encounter the foe.
