Synopsis
Yamamoto Isoroku: Command (26) by Mark Stille is an in-depth look at the life and career of one of the most influential naval commanders in history. Born in 1884, Yamamoto rose through the ranks of the Imperial Japanese Navy to become its commander-in-chief during World War II. He is best known for planning and executing the attack on Pearl Harbor, which brought the United States into the war.
Stille's book provides a comprehensive overview of Yamamoto's life and career, from his early days as a naval cadet to his final days as commander-in-chief. He draws on a wide range of sources, including Yamamoto's own writings and interviews with his contemporaries, to create a vivid and nuanced portrait of the man and his times.
Stille argues that Yamamoto was a brilliant strategist who was ahead of his time in many ways. He was one of the first naval commanders to recognize the importance of air power, and he developed innovative tactics that allowed the Japanese Navy to achieve early successes in the war.
However, Stille also acknowledges Yamamoto's flaws. He was a gambler who was often willing to take risks, and he sometimes made mistakes that cost the Japanese Navy dearly. The attack on Pearl Harbor was one such mistake, and it ultimately led to Japan's defeat in the war.
