Nimitz: The Man Who Won the Pacific

Brayton Harrisâ?? â??Admiral Nimitzâ? is the easy-to-read story of the career of the nationâ??s foremost Navyflag officer of the 20th century. Mr. Harris has done an admirable job of condensing a long and colorful career into a mere 256 pages. With so few pages to work with, he seldom goes into great detail, but itâ??s an easy read, it flows in a natural chronological order, and it covers all important events in Nimitzâ??s life, especially the period when he was the â??commander of the Pacific Ocean theaterâ? during World War II. For the reader who might wish to learn about or refresh his or her knowledge ofNimitz, this book is a quick way to do so. Itâ??s also a great story of leadership.
