虽然Battle of Midway或许更为人熟知，但Battle of Guadalcanal是一场规模更大、持续时间更长、也更为残酷的较量，它标志着Pacific War的转折点。这是一场持续了4个多月的陆海空全面决战，双方都倾尽了所能调动的一切资源。本书讲述了很大程度上决定战局的多场重大海战。初期，US Navy刚刚从和平时期的沉睡中苏醒，并在经验远为丰富的日军打击下遭遇了US naval历史上一些最惨痛的败仗……

感谢推荐 James Hornfischer 写的《Neptune's Inferno》，真是一本神作。我特别喜欢里面的两段话：“太平洋战争的史诗为每个人都翻开了新的篇章。无休止的人员轮换抢椅子游戏见证了……
Thanks for this reference to Neptune's Inferno by James Hornfischer, it was a fantastic book. I like two quotes in particular "The epic of the Pacific war found new chapters for everyone. The endless game of personnel-rotation musical chairs saw…
……护航航母，加上几艘驱逐舰和护航驱逐舰，硬刚日本舰队的绝对主力：战列舰和巡洋舰。对炮火下勇气的描写令人瞠目结舌。棒极了的一本书。《Neptune's Inferno: The U.S. Navy at Guadalcanal》[4]。涵盖了几场海战，但地面战着墨不多。也是一本极好的书。《The Fleet at Flood Tide: America at Total War in the Pacific》[5]。太平洋战争后期的……
…escort carriers, and a handful of destroyers and destroyer-escorts vs the heavyweights of the Japanese fleet: Battleships and cruisers. Jaw-dropping descriptions of courage under fire. Fantastic book. Neptune's Inferno: The U.S. Navy at Guadalcanal[4]. Covers several naval battles, but not much on the ground conflict. Really good book too. The Fleet at Flood Tide: America at Total War in the Pacific[5]. The late Pacific…
如果你想了解萨沃岛海峡（铁底湾）里那些残骸是怎么来的，去读读 James Hornfischer 写的《Neptune's Inferno》吧。然后再读读同一位作者写的《The Last Stand of The Tin Can Sailors》。因为那是一本令人叹为观止的神作，讲述了在力量悬殊的绝境之下所展现出的惊人勇气。
If you're interested in how some of the wrecks got in Ironbottom Sound, read Neptune's Inferno by James Hornfischer. Then read The Last Stand of The Tin Can Sailors by the same author. Because it's an amazing book about some astonishing bravery in the face of overwhelming odds.
如果想找一本详细、局部充满戏剧性、讲述二战水面海战原始技术的书，我推荐《Neptune's Inferno》：https://erenow.net/ww/neptunes-inferno-the-u-s-navy-at-guada... 尽管当时已经有了雷达，但它同样存在需要人工标绘的问题，而且只装备在少数舰艇上，指挥官们也还没更新他们的战术训练……
For a detailed and in places dramatic book on the primitive technology of WW2 surface naval warfare, I can recommend "Neptune's Inferno": https://erenow.net/ww/neptunes-inferno-the-u-s-navy-at-guada... While radar existed, it had similar problems of manual plot, was only on a few ships, and the commanders had not updated their training…
作为一个目前正在啃二战历史书（《Neptune's Inferno》）的人：我认为外部敌人的存在起到了至关重要的作用。冷战时期也是如此。掌权者实际上需要大众付出努力、甚至献出生命，来切实投入到战争中去……
As someone chewing their way through a WW2 history book (Neptune's Inferno) at the moment: I think the presence of external enemies mattered hugely. As it did during the cold war. Those in charge actually needed the effort and bodies of the public, for material war-fighting…
