World War II Sea War, Volume 12: Anzio, Kwajalein, Eniwetok and the Admiralty Islands [off topic]

[MW Giles]

I have the volumes up to Vol8 and I think they are quite good, though the authors are obviously better acquainted with ships than they are with a/c and you will spot this quite quickly

Cannot comment whether they plagiarise other authors as this is the only source I have on naval operations.

The coverage is a bit varied and in the early volumes the most detail is on RN movements. I think I read somewhere that they started with a database of RN operations and then expanded it to cover other navies. Given the activities of the USN later in the war the later volumes are going to become USN-centric
