There's something about these James Hornfischer books that grabs me. I don't know if it's his writing style as a whole, or the way he manages to bring all of the accounts to life in a cohesive narrative that doesn't seem dry at all. Whatever it is, I really have a hard time putting the books down while I'm reading them, and then I'll find myself going back to double check on a particular account here and there, when I find it haunting me.

I have every intention of doing this with Tin Can Sailors, but my BiL has my copy so when I get it back we'll do the book thing again. If you haven't read The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors I simply cannot recommend it enough.

In any event. I would like to karma a couple copies of Neptune's Inferno: The U.S. Navy at Guadalcanal by James D Hornfischer. One is my paperback that I've read a couple times now, and the other will ship to one of the winners directly from Amazon.

Two winners will be drawn.

Please be a member in good standing with 100 posts, and be willing to provide your shipping address through a valid email address. That's it! I'll let this run for a couple days and draw winners.


Thanks!

Please don't enter me in the karma - I have this book already, as well as Hornfischer's "Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors." Both are great reads.

Please include me as well in this chance for a book by a great author!

Thank you so much for the chance

Please include me in your karmic pool, and thank you for the chance.


PS: I will put it on the karmic wheel when I am finished with it.

Great book! My uncle was on the Atlanta! When he got ashore after the Atlanta was sunk the Marines gave him a rifle and bucket of grenades sent in the woods and said welcome to the Marines! Or so I was told.

Thanks for the chance.

I'd love to read it. Put me in please and thanks.
