Publisher Description

William Halsey, the most famous naval officer of World War II, was known for fearlessness, steely resolve, and impulsive errors. In this definitive biography, Thomas Hughes punctures the popular caricature of the fighting admiral to present a revealing human portrait of his personal and professional life as it was lived in times of war and peace.

"Smartly written . . . [It] deserves to supplant E. B. Potter's 21-year-old Bull Halsey as the standard life of its subject . . . Hughes is an entertaining writer and an incisive observer."

— Wall Street Journal
