The author has inscribed and signed the book on the inside front cover. The inscription reads: "To: Harlan Shippy Stanford E. Linzey USN"

Linzey, a bandsman aboard the USS Yorktown, tells of its destruction during the battle of Midway. After his ship was sunk, and in large part because of the events of that day, Linzey became a chaplain in the Navy. This is his first-hand story of the battle, and of his belief in divine intervention on that day.
